I then typed "shutdown -r now" on the system prompt and let the system reset itself and it runs through the startup and gets to a point that says "WARNING: / was not propely dismounted" it then runs for about 30 seconds checking the diskd etc and defragmetting I think and then it hangs with a message "CLEAN FLAG NOT SET IN SUPERBLOCK" and now it just sits there doing naff all with no disk activity at all. My Email address is adrianc@showtimearabia.com and my phone number is UK 0171 478 6801. Cheers Adrian Coppin IT Manager for MTV Europe (Gulf DTH)
