CTM. I have two ide drives attached to wdc0 and one on wdc1. Besides not being able to write a boot manager that worked to the wd0, everything ran fine. Then this morning when I went to check the morning mail I booted the new kernel, the back up one was built with the src-cur.093{8|9} CTM, and wdc0 could not be detected, but wdc1 was, which didn't do me any good since, the root dir existed on wd1. Naturally, I tried to boot with the backup (stupid me, because I should keep a tried and true backup:-() and the same thing. So I was out of system until after work and school;-( Anyway, I just got things back up under a 2.0.5R kernel and found that I have many bad sectors on my root partition, so _finally_ I have a reason to buy a scsi drive (well a justification):-) I did have some Errors: C:37 H:6 S:21 C:32 H:12 S:21 but I think those were caused by the bad blocks on the root dir. ========================================================================== root@tippy.vnet.net | Bill Gates is the Anti-Christ cmmadiso@uncc.edu | Windows95 is the False Prophet ==========================================================================
