What a pity. I hope you'll get it fixed somehow. ;-) Seriously, just in case you actually wanted to receive help here: we can only help you if you state your problem explicitly. That includes what exactly you are doing, what you expected to happen and what happened instead. What we don't know: - how you want to take an image (program name, command line) - which filesystem you want to copy - where you want to put that copy - how you boot into your system As a general advice I can only say that you shouldn't try to create an image from a mounted filesystem. That rules out /. If you want to that, it's best to boot from a live CD. > _____________________________ > Sent from my phone using flurry - Get free mobile email and news at: > http://www.flurry.com You also might want to use a system / software for mailing that uses linebreaks and doesn't make it difficult to use a reasonable amount of punctuation.
