I never heard of creator3d or elitem6, so I'll pass on question 2.
i did the power cycling. when i doa printenv, it shows that the boot setting is disk0:3... which is even more frustating because it still tries to boot from the net.
seriously... you've never heard of Creator3D or EliteM3/M6 cards? do you do most of your work on server class machines?
