No operational problems with the machine as far as i can tell.
Already checked dmesg and found nothing. Neither the megaraid or adaptec modules are built in to the kernel. Taken from my kernel .config: CONFIG_SCSI_AIC79XX=m CONFIG_AIC79XX_CMDS_PER_DEVICE=253 CONFIG_AIC79XX_RESET_DELAY_MS=15000 and CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID=m Could it be initrd doing it ? It was built with the hardware in place. -- Carl - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
