You probably didn't run DTiVomad when you installed v25xtreme. Put the HD back into your PC, boot from the v25xtreme CD, and enter this to run DTiVomad:
/maddtb4/setupcd.sh
make sure you answer no to the question about having 2 drives.

can i do it thru the serial port or must i put the hd back in my pc thanks and if i must put it back in the pc do i type the madd line at the boot prompt or at the tbd login prompt? thanks

You can't do it from serial bash, you have to put the HD back into PC. Boot from CD, login as root and when you get bash prompt on PC type in that command and asnwer the questions.

You should get a message right before the first bash prompt, something like "you may now login as root". Just type in root..
