Rob, i shut down either from KDE or using the halt command and it seems ok, everything is unmounted properly before i get the power down message. but i do have multiple boots on both c:(Win2k Server) and d:(WinXP Pro).Both are NTFS. LILO is residing in hda(C:). Any ideas?

Need some help... i have noticed that every time my linux box boots, it starts probing all the partitions on my single hard disk and gives me error messages such as probing hdc, probing hdd then it tells me IRQ error- failed to probe hdd, etc. This happened with 2 distros i use(Mandrake RedHat). sounds like you are not shutting it down properly.
