I hope I didn't mislead. That was for Jim, John, K etc. Normally if I
hit a problem that I can't nail to my own foot (ouch!) I try and raise a
flag. But I initially felt like I might have started this series
problems of mine.

I seem to have backed out of them a bit (time will tell) by using my
root fs backup as a "comparator" and adding *unsuspected* later things
from the live system. Things stabilized at that point. Next cron-invoked
prelink and/or yum update will probably enlighten me more though.

BTW, am running off the "backup" root fs created with my latest "semi-
script" (semi=needs some coalescing and parameterization) and am about
ready to put it into cron.

I gotta say, it is really neat doing backups while the production work
(as if I really had any :-() kept on going. And cheap too! Commodity
100GB HDs about $40 after rebates. With some hdparm application for
spin-down and up, should be pretty damn reliable.

As I promised in another thread, I will both post details about this
(when ready) for other on-the-cheap users and try to test testdisk.

As stated in that post, slow going though.
