this is the problem:
I've got a 2,5 HD with a msdos partition table and

Title: ATI Rage Pro XFree 4.0.3 config

Folks,
Until recently, I've been
running XFree86 3.3.6 successfully with my
hardware.
I've tried to upgrade the
X-server to 4.0.3, and sadly haven't gotten anything but a
blank screen and a fatal error. I also tried 4.0.2
with the same results.
