top posting.. sorry.

the out of memory (if anyone cares) seemed to be solved
by manually editing the last partition size in the config
to give it a true block count (instead of end of the disk
geometry).. dunno if this is busted, but finally found
the work around.

second and quicker question.. is there any place in this
.master file that i cna just set a flag to turn on the 'listing'
feature????

thanks!
