I suspect this means you ran out of space on some partition or other. When the error box occurs, try going to the second virtual terminal (ie Alt-F2) and running "df". A floppy drive problem is possible, but seems fairly unlikely if you have already read in three disks successfully by the time it happens. Bad disks are also a possibility, but if you have tried fresh disks that also doesn't seem all that hot a contender. p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
