I just tried the same thing, except that I blew away by old installation 
first. Install finished normally, but on the first reboot it hung up on 
the IDE stuff again. Since I'm dual booting with win2k I decided to 
replace the ancient bootsect.bsd file I had been using with /boot/boot1 
from the livefs cd (disc2). Same results. Now what?

Its weird how it will boot from the cd w/o problem but it barfs from the 
hard drive. I don't have a non-dual boot machine to try...I wonder if 
that's the problem.

Has anybody filed a PR for this yet?
