Pardon my asking as I have kind of sat by and watched all this go
by as an interested obsever.
Looking at the bootlist, would you not need a CC3HDISK driver and
device descriptors loaded at bootup to be able to access a hard disk
on boot?
May be I don't see it because it is incorporated in another driver?
