Hello Yonetani !

OK ls
open '/' failed: no such file or directory
OK show
LINES=24
console=vidconsole
currdev=cd0:
interpret=OK
loadev=cd0:
prompt=%{interpret}
OK lsdev
cd devices:
    cd0: Devuce0x0
disk devices:
shows both disks with respective well indentyfied slices.
    
The cd drive is master on ata0 controller; the two disks are fed by an el
cheapo ata133 controller.
The first is an ata100 80 Gb.
Second is a 20 Gb.
    
Installs by "cpduping" from cd or "rsyncing" from disk were working well
before reshuffling everything around; the cd was then, and still is
primary master.

The solution to this problem is beyond my knowledge base and creativity.  ;^)

Thank you for your curiosity.

Regards,

Robert
