Hi Bonzi.

No, it is actually /dev/hdb on the MkII, but there is a symlink (actually many of them) in /dev/ that maps the old /dev/hdc (that was used on the MkI) to the correct /dev/hdb file(s). Or equivalently there might just be duplicates of the /dev/hdb* files. I don't have my empeg here at the moment, so I can't check to make sure.
Remember: The MkII uses a single channel IDE controller while the MkI used two channels. /dev/hdc is the first drive (master) on the second IDE channel, while /dev/hdb is the second drive (slave) on the first channel.
So, in general, /dev/hdc works on both, MkI and MkII, while /dev/hdb only exists on the MkII.
