Same again, I'm afraid. A year ago, I had Sarge running on an SS20, so I know it can work. Something is obviously not right. The other strange thing is that I have two 2.1 Gb drives, and whatever I try to do with the 2nd drive, it only lets me use about 250 megs. I have removed all the partitions on it, and tried several times.
