Nasty thoughts: look at one that's gone to grub, and from the grub command line, try root (<tab>). Then try kernel \vm<tab> I'm just wondering if either they're not pointing to the same UUID, or if they're looking at /dev/sda, and some of them have enumerated it so that it's /dev/sdb, or whatever. Also, I wonder about the possibility of a race issue, if they're all trying to come up at the same time. mark
