That is probably not the problem. Even more simply... If you're bringing it up in single user mode, don't forget to do "ccdconfig -C" before you do your fsck's by hand. You didn't specify if this is what you were doing, but I forget to do that every now and then. Fsck bombs. I grumble; type ccdconfig -C. Fsck works... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael L.
