I've also noticed that Panther is much more twitchy about master/slave drive setup. I had a 40 GB Hitachi drive partitioned four ways and had 9.2/10.1/10.2/10.3 on it. It was the slave drive on my Sonnet ATA controller. It booted to all four systems (had to install 9.2 first, btw) fine after I completed the install. Came back the next day none of the systems would boot. None. Go figure. I put the drive on the built-in ATA bus as master (slave won't work in my B/W G3 on the built in ATA bus; known issue) and erased it. Set it up using 10.1 and 10.2 on two partitions and have had no problems booting to it at all. Go figure.

Erased and reformatted the drive, and did a fresh install of OS 10.3 and the various updates.
