The ROOT file system's kernel only finds the first controller, so the advanced installation never asks me to put anything on my second disk. Just to make sure it wasn't hardware, I copied the Ultrix 3.1C kernel over and booted it; yes, it found both controllers and both disks. Does this have something to do with the "floating" address space? Why did it work under Ultrix 3.1C? So unless someone has a clever thought, it looks as though I'll have to try to install the system on a single disk, make a 4.1 kernel that sees both disks, then redo the whole thing from scratch again using my own kernel in place of the installation one from the ROOT file. -- -IAN!
