It really is broke?

I am surprised. I thought it was something I had done wrong or that it 
was a problem with my hardware.

As I have posted earlier, I have unreliable power, especially during 
thunderstorm season.  It is not the on/off that causes problems but the 
rapid in-betweens. Usually my FC5 boxes just reboot and resume normal 
operations. I have been very please with this. It is more than I had 
expected. This time, this one system did not recover (2 other 2200 
kernel systems did).

I am happily running on the 1987 core and will probably go to FC6 within 
the next month. So, this is not a priority for me now.

I have learned a lot. I still want to learn more though:

I want to know how to capture these messages in a log file. 
/var/log/boot.log is empty and dmesg and messages do not have them either.

I also want to find the list of switches for the kernel line in grub.conf.

Thanks again to all who have helped me this far.

Mel
