I was switching back and forth between consoles and I guess I looked at the wrong line. Anyway, it turns out that it was a hard drive problem. I tried twice on the old drive, both times it failed in the same way. Built it on the new drive and it worked like a charm. I can't figure out what could have been wrong, but that seems to have been the cause. Again, thanks for the help. -- Ian Truelsen Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
