Console setup definitely seems worthwhile, but it will take me a little time to get to it. On the off chance I got some useful output from check, here it is. I don't think too much scrolled by. check: "/386/bin/upas/filter": xtag: checktag tag=Tnone/0; expected Tind1/50352 -- flushed (225420) check: "/386/bin/upas/list": xtag: checktag tag=Tnone/0; expected Tind1/50391 -- flushed (225953) check: "/386/bin/upas/_marshal": xtag: checktag tag=Tnone/0; expected Tind1/50406 -- flushed (226221) check free list lo=656348 hi=703242 nfiles=43599 fsize=712733 nused=201282 ndup=0 nfree=38803 tfree=38803 nfdup=0 nmiss=472646 nbad=0 nqbad=0 maxq=167269 base stack=620 high stack=1920 of 16000 deepest recursion=13 That's from the following config. When I did copyworm, I just had h0 as main and w2 as output; otherwise I get the no blocks to copy message. config w0 service pinky filsys main c[w0w1]f{h0h2} filsys dump o ipauth 192.168.0.109 ip 192.168.0.108 ipgw 192.168.0.1 ipmask 255.255.255.0 Just for the record, I tried copyworm from h0 to (w2w3) giving me approximately 100G target. There were no error messages at the end of copyworm, but when I tried to boot c[w0w1]f(w2w3) I got tag=Tnone/0; expected Tvirgo/12211541 - flushed (12211541) panic:fworm:checktag 12211541 cpu 0 exiting which is like what I started with only apparently reflecting the larger size Greg
