What happens if you let it sit there for a while - does it start up then? Meanwhile, if all else, you can boot off the install CD, hit F1 and then try a "linux rescue" - not necessarily to do any repairs, but to see if you can properly mount the root filesystem - and if so, then reboot and see what happens again during a normal bootup. -- Sun Jul 6 09:00:00 EST 2003 09:00:00 up 3 days, 22:20, 2 users, load average: 0.10, 0.14, 0.10 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 & RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * A healthy male adult bore consumes each year one and a half times his own weight in other people's patience. -- John Updike
