Ouch - was this prior to install? Maybe you hit the wrong partition. Linux partitions don't need to be defragging, and if yuu had a linux on a windows partition (but then Mandrake doesn't support this) then defragging would indeed cause problems. The physical location of your kernel is stored in the boot sector someplace, and that means anytime you replace it, or move it around (which defragging would do) yuou need to rerun the lilo / grub programs. > daniele
