Yes it does wait for 10 seconds.

I have now also tried running it on my desktop machine (which has IDE disks) 
with the same results and have also tried running last night's build from 
Cambridge -- also with the same results. I'm beginning to think I'm missing 
something obvious!

Any ideas why there are different results exporting sdb and sdb1? Is it 
something to do with the probe?

Here's some more debug output from xen0 console:
