The problem came when I went to reboot. The system just hangs, I'm going on 7min now with it just sitting at what I would presume should be the loader prompt. No import moves things along. The last post on the link you provided pretty much sums up my issue currently. If you or anyone else has some advise on this, I would be greatly appreciated. -- > Chris Brennan > -- > A: Yes. > >Q: Are you sure? > >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. > >>>Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? > http://xkcd.com/84/ | http://xkcd.com/149/ | http://xkcd.com/549/ > GPG: D5B20C0C (6741 8EE4 6C7D 11FB 8DA8 9E4A EECD 9A84 D5B2 0C0C) ------------------------------------------------------------------------
