I'll give that a shot for addressing the unmounted drive, but I may have isolated the intermittent boot problem this morning.

It boots fro a cold start, but shuts down on a re-boot or a warm boot when the 3 512M PC 100 sticks from the DA are in place, but didn'thave a problem with the pair of slower 512MB sticks that were originally installed in the QS'02 before the HDD move from the DA.

I tested 5 successful warm boots and a re-boot with the 1 GB pair.

I need to do further testing, but my working theory is that one of the faster sticks from the DA passes the mem test on a cold boot, but flakes out after it gets to operating temperature causing the system to shut down almost immediately after a warm boot upon detection a a nasty mem test failure.

Dunno though, thanks guys, keep those suggestions rolling in, comrades! :approve:
