I did try to open it and got the usual garbage stuff not a text file. If I recall correctly, that was on a drive that later died. It very well could be that it just went corrupt. Also, that kernel had been used before, it just didn't work that time. It's been a while back and was on another machine. So far, the last time I had a kernel fail on first boot was waaaaaaay back when I was first creating my own kernels and was learning what options were a must have. That would be back around 2003 or so.=20 Dang, I'm getting to be a old Linux fart. ROFL :-(=20 Dale :-) :-)=20
