Hmmm, I have a couple of machines running with fdisk partitioned drives 
with no problem.  I fdisk partitioned the scsi drives on my Pismo (ydl 
running on the internal ide drive) then did the install on the fdisk 
partitioned scsi drives with no problem.  The drives boot fine on both 
the Pismo and on the Synergy VSS4 boards I was targeting them for (after 
putting the gemini kernel in place of course).
