Trying partman-1/13-alpha13-dev2/arc, is this the latest?
It works (sort of). I'm sure that I tried this one before and it didn't work.
Anyway, I can get it to work by telling it to look for ADFS Filecore/Linux
partitions. I can set up the partitions correctly apart from Linux Table - it
wants to stay at 0k - is this OK?

It still can't see the partitions on the drive (hda) connected to the internal
IDE interface.
Booting into Linux it says:
<snip out stuff not needed>
Icside detected ARCIN v6 on slot 0
hda:ST33232a, 3077mb w/128kB cache, CHS6253/16/63

Partition Check
hda:[ics]
hdc:[ics]hdc1 hdc2 hdc3 hdc4
The hda disk drive is connected to the internal IDE interface.
The hdc is connected to the APDL card.
The Linux partitions are on he hda device, but somehow linux cannot recognise
them.
I have RISC OS partitions on the Quantum Fireball, and I am able to mount
these, but I cannont mount hda, hda1 etc
