After booting the qube2 I execute the command:

        # mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /home/users/bservies
        mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/sda1 as a block device
               (maybe 'insmod driver'?)

but after executing 'modprobe scsi_hostadapter', it works fine.  I believe the
strange lock-ups I have experienced on booting were due to my old configuration,
where I put the scsi device partitions in /etc/fstab and the kernel got 'stuck'
trying to do something with them.

Any other suggestions?
