I copied the *.bad files back into place and... it booted just fine! I really can't explain that. When the problem first occurred I tried lots of boots, and completely disconnecting the power for several minutes to make sure it was properly reset. Always "Bad magic number". When I moved those files out of the way and replaced them with the *.bak versions then suddenly it booted again. But now I've put the *.bad ones back and it boots. I'm sure it's using those because: j...@sheeva:~$ uname -a Linux sheeva 2.6.30-1-kirkwood #1 Mon Aug 17 14:01:54 UTC 2009 armv5tel GNU/Linux j...@sheeva:~$ I'm at a loss to explain why it wouldn't boot before. Sorry to have worried you and thanks for all your assistance. John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
