Well use your install disk to boor in rescue mode if you can't get up any other way, and make sure you are able to chroot to your / and mount whatever partition is normally mounted to /var Then # cat /var/log/boot.log Sounds like something serious. Remember /imagers/memtest-x86.bin is on the first install CD, in case you need it. Civileme
