User Toasty <toasty@shell.dragondata.com> stands accused of saying: > I don't know what you guys would need to know about the hardware, but: > > Tyan Tomcat IV with two P/200's > 128MB of ram > 3Com 509 network card > IDE hard drive Other issues aside, the best way to give a hardware profile is to include a copy of the COMPLETE dmesg output. This gives the kernel's messages (including boot and errors) which are more much more informative that the info you gave. :) (Note I said _complete_. An edited dmesg is often next to useless, since the user mistakenly identifies vital information as irrelivent and edits it out) -- Jonathan Mini Ingenious Productions Software Development P.O.
