Re: Kernel Panic

Is the controller a 2940?  Did the disk work before?  There at least *were*
some issues with the 2940 in that it couldn't use hard drives bigger than
8GB.  I don't know if that's been resolved, but it's something else to
consider.  The location of the kernel is prolly it though...
