It all seems to work fine until I start XFree86. Then the flash gets corrupt, even if it is not mounted ! My linux then starts to freeze for several seconds or crashes when I do any operation on my flash (M-Systems disk-on-chip 2000) like a mount,e2fsck...or sometimes completely at random. The hardware is ok as I already tried 3 different flash disks just to make sure and I always get the same result. Any clues ? _________________________________________________________________ Chatten met je online vrienden via MSN Messenger. http://messenger.msn.nl/
