Now rebooted, with this command line to the kernel: Kernel command line: ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb dm-mod.major=238 dm.major=238 selinux=0 Unknown boot option `dm-mod.major=238': ignoring Unknown boot option `dm.major=238': ignoring So its still at FE00h/65024d. And I fixed the underscore to a dash in my modprobe.conf, now I'll do another mkinitrd & reboot again. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
