Can you also show the results of df?
Ken,
Following is output of df:

Are more options necessary ? Bob S.
Wow, 15 entries for /. There should only be one. Something is radically wrong here. Try booting to the rescue DVD/CD and running fsck on /dev/hdb1 and see if anything shows up there. It's almost as though there is some corruption going on with the hard drive or a flaky power supply causing intermittent problems. Try removing the /etc/mtab file while in rescue mode, if it exists. You will need to mount /dev/hdb1 to /some_mount_point while booted in rescue mode to look for it. Something like: mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt rm /mnt/etc/mtab (there will be an error if it does not exist and it shouldn't if you are not booted to the hard drive) umount /mnt Also look in /lost+found and see if anything is there as it would indicate file system problems as well and show faulty disk usage. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
