This is the exact boot proccess: ... /dev/rwda: clean, 86639 free (23 frags, 10827 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation /dev/rwd0s1e: clean: 163712 free (32 frags, 10827 blocks, 0.0 % fragmentation) /dev/wd1a on /: specified device does not match mounted device ... It's a wired setup, but it should work. If I type 'mount' at the single-user prompt, it tells me that it's mounted as 'root_device', however, there is no such device. Can anyone help me? 2) I'm having problems with me network. It started after I built a new kernel. I can connect to the machine, but it will never respond. Example: I telnet into my POP3 server and it will connect, but will never come up with the welcome message ("QPOP 2.4 starting....."). Another example: I telnet into the machine, and it just sits there, connected, with no login prompt. The wiredest part, is that my DNS and ICMP(ping) work fine. I doubt it's a firewall misconfiguration because it connects. There is nothing on the console, or in any log files. At first, I thought it was the new kernel, but I proved myself wrong, because my previous working kernel (which my night maintainence script copies to kernel.WORKING :-) and the generic kernel do the same thing. Any suggestions? Thanks! Dima --- Dima Dorfman (dima@apc.net) "640k ought to be enough for anybody." - Bill Gates, 1981 Micro$oft $ucks!
