My guess would be that this is due to a flaky storage card. Many of the cheap ones don't seem to be designed for any type of access pattern more complex than storing the occasional photograph. If you have the chance I suggest that you try a different brand. The SL-5x00 models had a fairly unreliable SD driver which made the problem worse, but I haven't had disk IO related crashes on my SL-C750 using a Panasonic SD card. You may want to try running "while true; do sync; sleep 1; done &" in the background which had apparently improved things for some people. -Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
