Any suggestions? This clearly has to do with some software that I'm not familiar with, or you've got a mirror site, and there's some issue with the mirror. mark -- Afternoon Mark, On #1. Could any of those things (filesystem file, etc.) cause the system not to boot back up when it goes down for backups? Forgive my ignorance - is there a system-wide command for running it manually? I did not setup the backups and am not sure how to do that.
