So here's a strange one...when i reboot my machine, the display is dark until it reaches multi-user mode. Any ideas as to where I can start rooting around for the cause of that one? Thanks. Mike

Have you got a terminal (vt100) at the serial port?
 
nope, but i was rooting around my eeprom settings and found that i had the following two lines:

ttyb-ignore-cd=true
ttya-ignore-cd=true

i can't reboot it and check for another few hours, but would these two lines cause it? Mike
