Any other suggestions? Reg --- end of quote --- Try rebooting from the X install disk. The X install disk allows you to run the disk utility without doing an install, at least the 10.2 version does. That could help. I've seen this problem on my Beige MT and I can't remember exactly what I did about it. I made a 9.2 boodtable CD with system disk, startup disk and a bunch of boot utilities on it. I've had so many problems booting between 9 and X that this disk has bailed me out a few times. What helps me now, booting berween os is do a COLD reboot between 9 and X, unnecessary the other way around. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
