Worked fine on reboot. The 80GB drive it was reporting died while attached to the next computer I had hooked it up to. Perhaps it had been on it's way out. (currently: click-CLICK-pause-click-CLICK-pause-click-CLICK...)

Of course, the server is USB 1.1. Burning the knoppix CD and switching to the laptop. Adding USB/firewire PCI card to the mental shopping list.
