I saw those posts today, but DEFAULTS don't appear to have the regular WITN= ESS / INVARIANTS entries either.., Moot at this point, though, as the host = is now unable to do much more than sit there - keeps panicking whenever I t= ry to build a custom kernel, or even cvsup a fresh source (using either sta= ndard-supfile, or stable-supfile) :-( >=20 > My system (recently installed from 6.0-RC1 CD's) doesn't have the changes > yet.

Hrmph.., Looks like this machine (previously running 5-Stable since 5.3) is complete= ly hosed now. I have a think about what I can do here.., I've attached info= .0 from the crash dir, if anyone cares to look at it, please.
