You've said you're using a 4.3Gb HD, yet partitioned it into two volumes: A/ 2Gb, B/4Mb? Why only 4Mb?

Because 4MB is way more than enough for the A/UX booting 7.1

Even 3MB might work, actually...

Why didn't you create two partitions of 2Gb each and run 7.5.3 on one partition and A/UX on the other?

Sorry for the confusion. Of course I intend to do that. The configuration described just was my last (not working) testing setup :'(

The first thing I think I'd try is reformatting the drive with the standard Apple HD Setup that comes with 7.5.3

Tried that, however, it won't recognize/accept the drive. The A/UX HD SC Setup does, I'll try it with that.

What do you mean by "boot loop" ?

Happy Mac is displayed for a second, disappears for a second, then it starts over again.
