You are right, it was not necessary to remove PKGPATH. > Sounds like the modules might not be loading.

Having them in boot was the ticket. > > Hope that helps. Many thanks to all those who responded, I am now happily booting from my HDD. Now to try to work out what is wrong with my PCI ADSL modem...
