I can boot BL2 ext2 with the standard BL2 or the standard BL3 kernel as 
compiled by Steven, which I think support IDEFLOPPY (IDE zip drive).  They 
recognize hda (hard disk with DOS), hdb (IDE zip drive), hdc (hard disk 
with linux( and hdd (CD-ROM DRIVE).

When I boot with the BL2 zimage into RAMdisk BL2 (without 4DOS loaded)
I see:

Partition check:
        hda:  hda1 hda2
        hdc:  ....... hdc1

RAMDISK:  Compressed image found at block 0

Then nothing else.  I can warm reboot.

Why is BL2 ext2 finding hdb but the ramdisk version is not?  Same kernel.

I then tried to boot to BL2 ext2 with 2.4.31 kernels, David Moberg's and 
mine without IDEFLOPPY support but I can't even get far enough to see if 
hdb is found (probably not).

BL3 loop works fine (2.2.26 standard kernel).  I don't have BL2 ext on 
here yet.


I will try a 2.4.31 kernel with IDEFLOPPY support in both BL2s.
