That was what I was looking for. It's what I remember seeing long long ago during installation or major upgrade. So I told it not to use /dev/sdb's boot record. And it decided to try to write to sector 51 on /dev/sdb anyway, Is it maybe trying to remove the boot stuff on that drive? I think there's no help for it but to find my screwdriver and physically remove the disk. That will take a while. -- hendrik > > if you see nothing interesting, retry with the -plow option. > > -- > Gonzalo Pérez de Olaguer Córdoba s...@gpoc.es > -=- buscando empleo desde 1988 -=- www.gpoc.es > > PGP: 3F87 CCE7 8B35 8C06 E637 2D57 5723 9984 718C A614 > _______________________________________________ > Dng mailing list > Dng@lists.dyne.org > https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
