I've seen it before on kernels prior to 2.1, but I don't recall exactly which. I think I've seen 2.0 kernels do it, as well as the prior (1.2?) version. I think I've seen it on both slackware & debian, as well. When I"ve seen it, "rebooot" caused the abnorrmal shutdown, in which e2fsck was necessary, while "shutdown -r now" worked fine, as (i believe) the three fingered salute. I never did figure out why, I just adjusted :) rick
