I want 5.4-rel, but 5.stable wasnt tagged in CVS when the error went in, so I'm forced to do cvs export & boot attempt on HEAD = current 5.1 boots: ok 1-Dec-2003: OK 5.2.1 boots ok 2004.02.25 5.3: Fails 2004.11 5.4: Fails Its a boot error very early in boot sequence, a more knowledgeable friend than I had problems trying to figure out what was crashing, so I'm zeroing in on when the commit was done, then will inspect suspect code. I'm down to a 6 hour window now setenv TZ GMT; cvs -R export -D "2004-02-16 13:00" sys # boots OK setenv TZ GMT; cvs -R export -D "2004-02-16 19:00" sys # RUNNING cvs -R export -D "17-Feb-2004" sys # Fails to boot If I could be investigating 5.4 code, I would be, but I'm searching for last bootable code before it broke. - Julian Stacey Consultant Systems Engineer, Munich. http://berklix.com Mail in Ascii (Html=Spam).
