Are there something which you don't understand ? >From this, I can't tell what the problem might be. If you can't explain the problem clearly and briefly, you are not likely to get help. Please remember, none of us are being paid to answer questions. I answer them if I have time that day, if I know the answer offhand, and if answering the question doesn't require too much work. In this group, I *read* the question if it is likely that I will know the answer from the subject line, and there are not too many postings. FWIW, I managed to hose my disk the other day. I had to do a complete reinstall of -current and CAM. I installed the 98.05.20 -current, used the boot floppies I downloaded from incomming a while back (I looked, they seemed to be still there, the same ones, so I didn't download new ones). Installed the kernel from the 2nd floppy in fixit mode, rebooted with -a, downloaded CAM, and built the world. Created a new kernel config, and built a kernel. Only problem was when I forgot to include a mouse in my kernel: X didn't want to work. Easily (if slowly) fixed. In any case, all of this was posted either to -questions or -current when I first installed. +C -- Thinking of purchasing RAM from the Chip Merchant?
