It doesn't there is a bunch of omb partitions and 9 is 128mb (using that for
swap)

It loads the kernel from the hd it seems .. the |/-\| goes faster than when it
boot from cd.
I have tried the ata_dma thing with out any luck.
Here is the message i get:
/boot/kernel/kernel data=0x3c209c+0x98c34 syms=[0x4+0x419c0+0x4+0x522b4]
DEFAULT CATCH!, code=900 at %SSR0:ff818d70 %SSR1:0000b030

Hope that gives a hint, btw i presume that the G3 B&W is a rev 2, i can
try a rev 1 at some point (have both models).
