Processes fired off to handle initialization may not have the same path available from a login. Depending on a PATH for system functions is considered risky and undependable: risky (in a security sense) because if someone can change the path, they can replace the functionality you think you are getting with whatever they want, and undependable because YOU might be responsible for changes later that affect the boot process in surprising ways. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DOS-Win-to-Linux-HOWTO.html (and http://www.tldp.org in general) http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=3016 or a good book on Linux or Unix system administration. > The size of a mounted volume? df on a full Linux system the "-H" option makes the numbers more readable for humans ("1.4M" instead of "1474560¨, for example). > Also, I did a pretty bad thing...

Copying files into /usr/local is not something that should result in corruption, but neither is it commonly used as the location to store files... certain subdirectories are typically used within /usr/local instead. See http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ for more information about what directories are usually used for what. Most likely you ran out of disk space during the write, and the local.lrp is incomplete. Replace it with a fresh one, and try again... this time checking ramdisk and floppy space before backing up. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Newmiller The ..... .....
