Dear Elan, Thanks for suggestion, I have 2.2r2. Do I need to edit yaboot.conf or its possible somehow to instruct kernel before crash? ISO images are mounted as read-only by Toast, I suspect mounting them as read-write could render long file names (> 32 chars) unusable by Linux. Thanks in advance. Andrei Verovski
