Hi, Thanks again for your reply. That seemed to fix it. I use my home brew linux, so no rc.sysinit for me but I've added the line. I have put this question on the buglist before and recieved an answer but I forgot it. If I use a jfs root and powerdown without umounting or stopping anything and reboot, the system will not come up because of a bad magic number. I used this / to test, when I do the same test on xfs (or reiserfs), the system will come up. What's my mistake ?
