Whatever it was, it was nicely destroying partition table and first file system on the disk way before you would get anywhere close to silo. It was a really weird stuff. And there was nothing warning you not to attempt something like that. So you would go from bootable system to unbootable system in about 2 minutes. Well, unbootable but fixable if you'r good in rescue mode stuff (and I had to use Debian boot CD for that). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
