What filesystem are you using? Please use the mount command to find out. Most probably it is ext2. Why 2.6.8? Isnt it better to use the latest? Im using 2.6.16-mm2 on debian testing. I rebuild everything about once a week and i never had a problem. -- www.smsglobal.net SMS Global Ltd Short Message Service For Seafarers _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
