Greetings, the subject says it all. When the number of boots has excceded the set value for a partition, and this forces an e2fsck run, it works fine for /dev/hda based partitions, but runs totally silent for /dev/hdd based partitions. I'd like to see if I can fix that so I don't think the machine is locked while its doing that and all screen output ceases for the 5+ minutes it takes to check a 180GB partition. . -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
