In the meantime I've not had usable luck with -rc1 nor -rc2 rc1 didn't want to boot after uncompressing, and rc2 is about as fast as a 3 day old carcass. And beating on it doesn't help, the stalls are 30+ seconds at a time. And nothing in the logs. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
