I am guessing that it has something to do with drive or cable. My vfat drive is and old 20GB seagate drive which I just used it as storage of all sort of temp things, while FC is installed in 7200rpm 40GB drive. I don't know if mixture of different speed could cause this. By the way this is dual boot system and widows xp show no such signs and symptoms which FC has been showing (this is where I got confused more). > Out of interest, what are /dev/hda and /dev/hdc?

Hi all, I tried chaning my IDE cable but problem persisted. Recently I updated my BIOS and problem seems to go away. I don't have that behavior now for few days. I hope this is it but don't know when it will strike back again.
