Nothing!! I did a complete re-installation from a Mandrake 6.0 CD.
Any ideas on what the inittab should display?

Steve,
Since posting my last msg, I've conducted a little experiment. It seems
like my other applications, the things provided with the CD, and StarOffice,
and one or two others downloaded appear to work just fine. The machine stayed
up all night Sunday night, running KDE, and the built in screen saver.
However SAT night I tried to run the Setiathome client software in background
mode as normal but from Console mode. The system crashed over night, with
segmentation faults, and a kernel panic. This machine and Mandrake just
doesn't
seem to like Setiathome.
I find this very bothersome. Because I like to participate in distributed data
processing projects, and if Mankdrake can't handle Setiathome... Well what
other applications will it have problems with.
Of course I'm still not ruleing out the possibility of my Motherboard giving
me problems.
Regards,
Clyde J. Kell
