Hi, that omits the message @ boot and you are correct, all is/continues to work fine.

Thanks..

As far as the DP55KG reboots, the workaround is set append="reboot=a" -
will a BIOS fix address this (other) issue? Try rebooting Linux without 
any special parameters (2.6.30+) and the DP55KG will hang at reboot
(note, shutdown does shut the machine off).

Justin.
