Have you never heard of those Guru numbers that the Amiga OS give? They have often allowed me to pin-point the problem.

Btw, lots of nasty thing can happen to a UN*X system that runs out of hard disk space during a coredump. -- Regards, _________________________________________________________________________ / \ | Rask Ingemann Lambertsen <gc948374@gbar.dtu.dk>, <e9864029@ebar.dtu.dk> | | WWW homepage: http://srv2.gbar.dtu.dk:8001/Rask/ | | Keyboard error: <Ctrl> and <Alt> are stuck - press <Del> to continue | \_________________________________________________________________________/
