Comment (by Luposian):

 Ok, just went out to the workshop and removed the drive, looking for a
 replacement cable.  None are long enough, but... in my search, I found I
 DID have another SATA DVD drive!  Kinda thought I did but couldn't find it
 initially.

 Here's the summary:  Plugged it in, with the cable from the other drive,
 inserted the Anyboot image disc and...

 BINGO!  It boots perfectly!

 It was the drive.

 Thus, this ticket can be considered CLOSED.

 However, last two questions... should I be using a different environment
 (other than a USB stick) or...?  I never had issues creating .iso's of
 32-bit versions of Haiku in the past.

 And second... any idea when a 64-bit version of WebPositive might be
 available, so I can web browse on my Aspire X1200 Desktop?  It's wired up
 (Ethernet), with nowhere to go! :-(
