Thanks. I forgot that installer simply uses an equivalent of dd on root partition.

One minor point, though: you mention /dev/hdc as second disk in your original manual installation recipe, and in this post /dev/hdb. I see from my MkII boot sequence that it expects second drive on /dev/hdc. Was it /dev/hdb on MkI?
