Hi, Using RH9+updates, P4/generic nVidia GeForce2 card, nVidia drivers. All was working well, then I installed a larger HDD (old: Seagate 40GB IDE UDMA100, new: Seagate 80GB IDE UDMA100). I just partitioned the new disk, copied filesystems over using tar (from CD rescue environment), installed grub, removed old drive, booted, all seemed ok, shutdown, went to bed. Next day, booting to runlevel 5, all looked well up to the point where gdm fires up, then the screen goes black, can't switch VT's, though system will reboot if I hit Ctrl-Alt-Del. I then bring it up in runlevel 3 and check the XFree86.0.log file and it says the X server was told to start on vt8 (should be 7). Having booted to runlevel 3, if I do a 'startx' it works, then a telinit 5 also works. At this point, a complete reboot usually does the right thing, but if I shut it down and try again it usually fails. So, likelyhood is I stuffed something up when I moved from the old disk to the new one, though everything else _seems_ ok, and when X works, it seems to work properly... any suggestions?
