   I did read it but off hand I do not remember what is did say, the hd
is brand new sata Seagate 300g. After reboot all works well. I have
just rebooted this system. The problem is displayed in that sylpheed
mailer can not send or recieve mail and my konsole program, a kde app,
tells me there is a read write problem. Now if the partition does turn
up bad, I have another that I can use. On next failure I will repost.

thanks Lonnie
