Despite the fact that this computer (750 mHz Athlon) is working _fine_, DH thinks I need a faster one. So he put all the bits together and put in the Redhat 7.3 disc 1. It goes along fine and then dies with: SystemError: (16, 'Device or resource busy') Full details here: http://members.cox.net/opensourceaz/etc/anacdump.txt Bear in mind that I don't do hardware! DH says he looked at Redhat's site but didn't find much in the way of a list of compatible hardware. Does anyone have any ideas based on the file above? -- Wendy in Chandler, AZ
