I don't have the answer as even after 8 months I'm still a novice but, the same problem happend with FC 1 now I'm not sure of the exact kernel issue I think it was about three back (FC1 Kernels that is) as you said it sounded like the heads were extending to far on the platters this usually indicates imminent hardware failure, however on the next issue of kernel (which if memory serves me, was very fast) the problem was fixed so I take the view that the problem lies in the kernel. This happened 'once' yesterday with my laptop but hasn't happened since. -- Regards Peter Cannon peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "And when Alexander saw the breadth of his domain he wept for there were no more worlds to conquer"
