BTW is it correct to have shutdown (or any other program you need to shutdown or to stay in single user mode) in a subdirectory of /usr if these directories are not part of the root partition ? I don't think so. I moved elvis into the root partition, too. When your system can't mount /usr (because it's normally mounted via nfs, for example) you will know why I did so. :-) Henry > [...] deleted > > Dennis G.
