The Lair of The Dark Knight

So I've come into ownership of a Cobalt RaQ4 and have decided to use it as an interim mail server until we (sammythesamoyed and I) have something better.

The only problem is that after successfully installing Strongbolt last night the RaQ hangs whilst scanning ide1. This is weird because the RaQ4 (not RaQ4i or RaQ4r) only has one IDE channel socket, ide0, and as such there are no devices connected to ide1 for it to scan.

Now the RaQ has Firmware version 2.10-ext3 and has been booting fine up until last night after I installed Strongbolt. The installation bypassed the firmware upgrade stage completely because the firmware is the current version for Strongbolt 1, as such the installation of Strongbolt can't have caused this problem.

Also note that I also installed Strongbolt onto a smaller hard drive first to test and that went fine. I've since switched between both test and normal hard drives and the same thing happens. I've even left it off for a while just in case it had overheated.

So why is this crapping out? I need help. x_x
