the only thing i have not done exactly to to your instructions misterbill is i dumped the binary to the drive using knoppix with the drive setup via an external usb caddy and not via an internal ide port , should tthis really make any difference ..??

any more ideas folks ...!
An external USB caddy shouldn't make that much difference. Just out of curiosity, how much do you know of the history of this server (i.e. original OS version, BIOS version, etc)? I have an image for a 1000 if you want to try that. I pretty sure it's SnapOS 3.4.803. I've heard of people mixing images for different snaps with varied success.
