Look at your vmunix's in root, all these "old" vmunix's combined took > 5MB. It's not surprising you get a full root. Back (or zap :-) these old vmunix up into somewhere else will fix your problem. -- Kai O'Yang, PSCIT, Peninsula Campus, Monash Uni, Frankston, VIC 3199, Australia. email: oyang@fcit.monash.edu.au Tel: +61 3 9904 4615, FAX: +61 3 9904 4124 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
