Hi, I have just put together a machine consting of a twin PIII 667Mhz in a Supermicro PIIIDM3 mainboard. Booting with Redhat Linux 6.1 gave the Syslog warning contained in the output below, asking me to mail yourselves. Please could you give me feedback reagrding the significance/consequences of this warning for normal operation of the machine.... thanks Richard Sessions Apr 21 04:11:09 localhost syslogd 1.3-3: restart.
