I figure if it's a hardware issue, then it should be an all-or-nothing issue? I'm positive this is the same spec as the last servers built for this same purpose, but the others are now on the other side of the country, so I can't access them to verify. So assuming the hardware is exactly the same, and assuming there's something in the -164 kernel that doesn't like that particular fake raid card, then I still can't see why I can't boot the -128 kernel as that's what the other boxes have running. :/ -- Spiro Harvey Knossos Networks Ltd 021-295-1923 www.knossos.net.nz
