Awesome! Thanks for the pointer. Having a look at the logs I am beginning to get an idea of the problem. I had played around with the location of /boot - moved some files around etc - and that was causing a problem.

I haven't extensively tested it on F14 yet. Wow, that bad eh. Thanks again for the pointers. I think I've got a start on what the problem is. Regards. > > Thanks, > > Rakhesh > > -- > Kevin J.
