Type "mount". Is the partition that /var/log on mounted read-only? If it is, check the partition's entry in /etc/fstab. You can edit fstab to change how the partition is mounted. > OTOH, dmesg didn't shows that. I had to Shift+PgUp the screen to copy > the errors. Is there any log where the error is saved? The only place that I can think of would not work if /var/log is on a read-only partition (/var/log/dmesg, or maybe /var/log/messages). -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
