Total silence from the list when I asked if anybody wanted to help to find out why. Moved the disc to an older system and ran the upgrade there (using the same CD's etc) The single cpu kernel on the initial FD1 discs won't boot on the new hardware, but the SMP kernel runs like a champ. So there is at least some hardware out there that the Fedora, (and previous install kernels) won't hack. Harry Moyes
