I'd really like to test it!!! I'll do of course.
But just tell me the way I should test it: the installation issue or once the 
system is installed? I'm a bit worried making the test on installed system, 
for I don't know if latter I can recover the system if the kernel won't see 
the two ATA controllers for hde and hdg...
If you tell me to test from scratch, just at installation stage, I will do it 
on next Tuesday, when I'll have mirrored latest package of Cooker from 
University. I have a 56k line here at home...
