The machine had/has two kernels installed on it: linux-image-2.6.22-2-686-bigmem 2.6.22-4: linux-image-2.6.22-3-686-bigmem 2.6.22-6 For both kernels, after reinstalling the kernel and thus building a new initramfs, the only difference I can see in booting is that about 50-70 copies of the following message are generated during the early part of the boot process: Using fallback suid method Other than that, the machine *seems* to boot and function fine (so far...). -- Steve Lane System, Network and Security Administrator Doudna Lab Biomolecular Structure and Mechanism Group UC Berkeley -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
