perhaps, booting into single-user mode helps as well. on your yaboot prompt you might append the number of the run-level to boot into. for instance boot: linux 1 to get into single-user mode which is usually without XFree86. of course, "linux" has to be replaced by the label you actually use. bye, sebastian -- ::: .O. ::: ..O ::: OOO ::: lynx -source http://www.kodeaffe.de/shensche.pub | gpg --import
