I can see an argument for calling the latter behaviour a feature, but I want to stop it anyway. Since I don't really expect anyone to know exactly what the problem is, I am hoping for a few pointers to help track down the problem(s). Stuff like, how do I get a system core dump/where is it kept; where is the documentation I need in order to read it and get started debugging the kernel, etc. Ken Cline
