Hi,
sorry to bother you again. In case I'm wrong with
sd_devname I should at least tell you what happens: while
booting I get the following message
...

...
which is obviously wrong (the drives are /dev/sda, /sdb, /sdc) so
if sd_devname() is ok, it's called wiht the wrong parameters.
This happens on another machine, too, with an adaptec controller.
I'm no programmer, so forgive me if my remark about
sd_devname() was stupid.
Thomas
