i have a AlphaPC 64lx 600Mhz. I have the latest alphabios and milo. I can use boot floppies to install RH7 from CD.
The disk initially was MSDOS Disklabeled and Disk Druid managed to correctly keep this label. Alphabios requires a MSDOS Disk label and not a BSD 
disklabel (booting from the SRM does require BSD). The first install of RH worked fine.
 A mistake was made upon an later reinstall and fdisk was used to change the disk to a BSD Disklabel. 
Druid will still work and RH& can install: before rebooting the machine I can ls /mnt/sysimage to see the new OS. 
However upon reboot, at the MILO prompt, I get garbage from an ls of the root partition. The automatic decision of
Disk Druid to always force the disk label to a BSD on an AIX system when there are no MSDOS partitions on the disk
is not always correct and should not be forced when one is booting from alphabios.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. get an aix system with alphabios with milo (Ok..RH7 does'nt support milo - but you still need a MSDOS disklabel for alphabios).
2. boot up and start anaconda and just before the format go into a virtual terminal and clean the disk  #dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/sda?
3. Install RH7 and reboot..always fails...at the Mil prompt try ls sda? 
4. I think this is because the disk druid popped the wrong disklabel on the SCSI drive.
