Hi,
In my case(stuck at bios splash after freebsd install) ,i had to give it to
acer support ,as i risked losing warranty if i opened/dismantled my laptop.
They have diagnosed harddrive to be faulty(the laptop is hardly 15 days old
:-( ). The lappy was running ubuntu and fedora fine.
Hope this

Hi folks,
I have several networking books (TCP/IP, Network Security, etc., etc.)

that while
