Dotan: As mentioned previously, check your drive jumpers. If you don't know how, ask - this problem you're describing sounds a lot like mis-jumpered drive scenarios I've encountered in the past. Mis-jumpered drives sometimes _can_ work, but performance _can_ be very erratic - I''ve encountered many variations on the mis-jumpered drive theme and performance is not always predictable. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, Md, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
