I've found this isn't always the case. Sometimes a lot of text will be dumped that makes the real reason disappear in output that is forced off-screen. Is there a way yet to log remotely? Besides outputting to a serial interface and capturing that? Assuming the interface is up, how about a netcat to a logging server? Guess I can hack initrd. On the same thread, can one easily enable telnetd during the install? I have done this during sun flash installs to telnet in and tail the install log so I can track build progress on a remote, headless server. ben. -- Registered Linux user number 339435
