 I can boot from the CD and install Haiku without any apparent issues.
 After installation and a reboot, however, is when this problem appears.

 Once the POST is complete, instead of continuing onto the bootloader, the
 system hangs at a blinking cursor (I can still press ctrl+alt+del to
 reboot the system).  Holding down shift during or before this does not
 yield the usual additional options.

 I've tried installing Haiku several times now (with and without safe mode
 enabled) and with different partitioning schemes but it's always the same
 problem. Disconnecting the second 120GB drive has no effect.
