I have had the same results with several usb sticks, but all of them have been at least 16GB. I am also swapping to the current USB stick on a swap partation, but I have had the same results on this stick and others without swapping to it. /usr/ports is on the root fs on the sd card. -Brett -- wynkoop@wynn.com http://prd4.wynn.com/wynkoop/pgp-keys.txt 917-642-6925 929-272-0000 If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege. -Honorable J.
