Hi Justin,

 Thanks for the boot log, and I'm happy to be wrong about the new kernel
not working :-)

> unin0: Version 192

 I think my Uninorth versioning code isn't quite right.

 The Pangea chip is recognised after all.

 Yep, the new kernel enables probing of the ATA slave. The original
iBook has 3 ATA controllers, with the disk and CDROM on the master channel.
Looks like Pangea systems have a single controller, with the disk on
the master and the DVD/CDROM on the slave.

later,

Peter.
