Thanks for all the info. The system is back running as normal. Everything seemed to be fine when I booted with Knoppix and checked the links and kernels installed. After checking while in Knoppix, I tried booting in Debian 2.6.11-1-686 by just removing the vga=0x31B option in the kernel line. Booting went on as normal. The next time I rebooted in the same kernel without editing vga=0x31B option and it booted fine again. It still eludes me what actually went wrong. But the system seems to boot fine now after 3 tries in 2 different kernels. Thanks, /KS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
