Don't change other versions, e.g. busybox, since newer versions sometimes don't work, or a patch is needed - see other mails in this list.

Updateing parted isn't a good idea, too - that's why the "NTLDRnotfound" page exist's ... cu Falko - -- Falko Trojahn fon +49-341-3581294 Dipl.-Ingenieur Netzwerke/Support fax +49-341-3581295 SMI Softmark Informationstechnologien GmbH www.smi-softmark.de -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iQEVAwUBRO2gtIkcY98goEs/AQICxAf9GKWGBAg8NnLALeAocenLgHQSwsSiNbRn 3drD8Q2udu6sf2vfhAiovy/ZTjbxipqK2KltKutIRAqWOHONKfEaPeaG48QyAsVu lMOKnezQt+voHQXJHnKCaDfebMrEtqIeEMMFJ1e4JZmbVjy4e91HWiUOcZbkjzkR zhxIORuZo69HLzjrE0NbaObRSBYADWQrgkm7+AfffydDFx1vLFyeHk71SwvYsmlZ 4EYtMFp1PSHctrp1cZJK+OvECSSsACujX+0vGknOqnng39t7Wm/aKZ6rlRusreCb bg5RRmY7daFOmF3knXDJQNaB7pxTpVxOKXF4ESMvUXRSpJtFlS7mqA== =8XgD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
