Perhaps it has become corrupted since. I was the original poster of this problem. Larry, your explanation make sense... but why would the Amiga crash all the way to Kickstart only *sometimes*? With a corrupted Kickstart disk, I would think that every crash would go back to Kickstart. I also have a modified Kickstart (with KFont3 replacement font), but I have had this problem even with a totally unmodified Kickstart disk. -- Dan Barrett ins_adjb@jhunix.UUCP UUCP barrett@cs.jhu.edu (128.220.13.4) ARPA Dept. of Computer Science, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218
