You need to know what it's running. If it's doing an fsck, that will take a lot of time. If it's firmware in the RAID controller, that's different. You can run tune2fs /dev/whatever and see how often it wants to run fsck. For that matter, what's the entry in /etc/fstab? mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
