With the additional problem of navigating to a second drive on boot, it was just too much. It simply didn't have enough kernel/initrd info to handle it. Adding the mount points for the second drive to 8.1's fstab gave me an easy way to copy the kernel/initrd files to the first drive. Adding the correct kernel and initrd to lilo.conf took care of the rest. Barry
