I've tried this morning with a bigger sda5, but without luck. fdisk -l /dev/sda: /dev/sda1 1 1 112 899608+ 83 Linux Native /dev/sda2 112 112 124 96390 5 DOS Extended /dev/sda5 113 113 124 96358+ 82 Linux Swap /var/log/syslog: Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Free swap = 90140kB Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Total swap = 96348kB Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Free swap: 90140kB Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 8192 pages of RAM Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 429 free pages Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 681 reserved pages Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 1229 slab pages Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 664 pages shared Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: 1552 pages swap cached Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Out of Memory: Kill process 4024 (sshd) score 96 and children. Nov 22 09:58:01 kernel: Out of memory: Killed process 4049 (sshd). There was another terminal open with a tail -f on /var/log/syslog, which could be an explaination of the failure, given that it was indeed using some resources. I'll further investigate this issue tonight. Other systems affected besides the nslu2? ciao, ema -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
