The only thing I changed lately was the CPU. (I've fried my PIII-1000 and I've returned to a C433). The System is: C433, 1024MB PC133, 3Ware 6800, 6x 80GB Maxtor, Intel EEpro100, 1x 40GB Fujitsu (boot disk at onboard controller), BX chipset (ASUS CUBX). (*) mkreiserfs doesn't work either (same error), it works ok with 1G Any pointers appreciated, Goetz.
