Hey Andrew, I changed some options in the filesystems (only) category. I seemed to have been able to reproduce my oops report that I got from the very beginning and was forced to basically do a minimized config. This time the oops didn't flood my screen so I was able to get it. I hope the oops report and the new .config will shed some light on this annoying problem. --snip-- unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffff8d printing eip: c0130693 *pde=00002067 *pte=00000000 Oops:0002 CPU:0 EIP:0060:[] Not tainted E-flags:00010000 --snip-- -- Steven sbarn03@softhome.net GnuPG Fingerprint: 9357 F403 B0A1 E18D 86D5 2230 BB92 6D64 D516 0A94
