Make the file immutable, presuming that your root file system is on Ext2 you do the following: chattr +i /etc/inittab Now boot up and carefully look for error messages on the console. Whatever tries to write to or delete that file will get an error return (even a root process) and will hopefully log what it's doing. If nothing else it'll stopp that type of activity. -- My current location - X marks the spot. X X X
