AFAIK just attach and mount it, and probably dd to/from it, and then post your fix :) I think any removable scsi (direct access, not cdrom) media might show a problem (see recent "USB Mass Storage Device" thread from Jim Beam). > or maybe I can loan it to patmans for 1 day... I don't have a machine (that I know will boot current 2.5) with a parallel port. I/we should get some removable media attached to one of our scsi systems we have here (maybe usb storage). -- Patrick Mansfield
