It is the original 40gig hd from my TiPowerBook Samsung I think. It is the only drive in the chain and I had been looking for the OHCI and 1394 drivers but didn't know that they would be indicated with blue background, so no I have not seen them load. Incidentally I just booted up my Gentoo 2005 install disk and formatted the usual partitions in the first 18gigs of free space thinking that the YDL installer would surely see the drive now, nope. Makes sense if the modules are not being loaded. So what now? Thanks -- Steven Didier
