It never reboots, I always have to reset. Umm, on one occasion I found the "hit any key to reset" on another vty so I'm just wondering now if this is just me not being patient enough for it to timeout :-) I don't think so though, although that message really need to go to vty0 rather than vty1 where I found it. Ohh, the motherboard is an oldish Intel board, don't have the details handy it's in work, the machine is something like LP486, and the motherboard has an integrated NCR710 SCSI controller and an integrated 82596 ethernet controller, neither of which seem to work with FreeBSD :-( -- Paul Richards, Bluebird Computer Systems.
