It still panics on mount. I did make an error in my earlier post tho, which I suspect you picked up. / is not hd0,0 .. that is my /boot ... shared by FC6-test an FC7-rawhide (as is /swap, hda5) df for rawhide is, Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hdb1 9.9G 4.4G 5.1G 47% / /dev/hda1 92M 50M 37M 58% /boot tmpfs 506M 0 506M 0% /dev/shm /dev/hdb2 27G 5.7G 20G 23% /home /dev/hda8 41G 25G 14G 64% /stor2 /dev/sda1 151G 119G 25G 84% /stor4 df for fc6-test is, Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda6 9.7G 4.7G 4.6G 51% / /dev/hda1 92M 50M 37M 58% /boot tmpfs 506M 0 506M 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda7 24G 9.7G 13G 44% /home /dev/hda8 41G 25G 14G 64% /stor2 /dev/sda1 151G 119G 25G 84% /stor4 -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
