Apparently you decided to reinstall. Perhaps if you referred to the
manual in the section describing setting up the partitioning and mount
points on the drives, the details could be less confusing. Here's the
TSS link to download the manual for YDL 4.0/4.0.1:

For clarity, I am not suggesting that a reinstall will change the
revving issue. Unfortunately, I don't have a G5 myself and my previous
guesses were limited as they were based upon a G4 anyway. Hopefully,
other G5 users will come forward and assist your queries.
Best wishes...
