What ROM have you fitted in the A2091? (Earlier ones have a partition size limit).

Are you setting a block size of 4096 bytes, rather than 512 bytes? You can get an issue with not enough RAM to validate a big partition.

Come to that, how big are your partitions?

EDI|T: Apologies, you did say ROM on the A2091 was latest. And they all use direct SCSI anyway.

Wow. That is good news and I think anybody would have real problems working that one out!
