Great Thanks, just I've upgraded to firmware 1.20 and succeeded to

catsboot-capsuled kernel too) from HDD and make it boot well.

This looks to me a displine issue. Personally, I hate "make every computer looks-like/behaves-like a PC" mantra of Linux champ. At very least the new CATS ROM feature needs to have definite rule and functionality to choose and run one of multiple OSes installed inside a single HD. Or, provide the "OS specific 1st stage boot program which resides in predefined disk block area." It would free ROM monitor from disklabel design varieties and file system internals. It seems the 1.20 behaviour consistent to me. Toru Nishimura/Engineering Lead/ALKYL Technology
