Thanks for your help. I will try your suggestions. one problem may be is that the machine is running promise fastrak raid controller and that required a special patch so that the raid drives (seen as one drive becauase they are mirrored) can be seen as /dev/sda instead of two ide drives. It is an official patch from fastrack. However, this patch does not work with the upgraded kernel. I was having problems before I installed the raid with the 9-1 reader, but this just complicates things. I will spend the time later today to fix all this and follow up with your suggestions.

Ah, I don't use devfs. Sorry, I didn't get your problem.
