- The new bootimage won't even allow me to get far enough to run
- efdisk and specify /dev/sd01. With the old bootimage I was able to
- load the rootimage but efdisk would crash after I specify the above.
- It would allow me to partition the disk (apparently?) but no drive
- info was detected (sect,cyl,heads) so the disk was unusable anyway.
