Thanks Ken, this seems to have worked. suse reports on its boot that it can't find /etc/mtab, also, there is a fatal X server error, as it can "find the screen(s), but none are usable" I tried a startx, an int 5, etc., but no luck. Also, I'm using an nvidia driver (from about last march) and I'm wondering if that had anything to do with it???
Thanks a million for all your help too. Donal -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
