They can't boot either because init dies due to a maloc error. The BIOS only finds a bit more than 900,000KB of memory. I used to have 128MB in 4 sticks of 32MB. This looks like one of the sticks has died to me. Anyone else have any ideas? -- /Xian "In C we had to code our own bugs. In C++ we can inherit them" unknown author
