Mondoarchive crashing on Fedora 10

[Jim Gribbin]

I am having trouble getting Mondo running on my laptop.

The computer crashes in the process of building CDs. Normally on CD1, but once I found a command line that got it through CD-9, crashing on 10.

The Mondo & Mini packages I got from Mondo's FTP site, the Fedora 10 subdirectory.

The buffer & afio were not available either from my distribution or the F10 directory on Mondo's FTP site, but I found the source RPMs on Mondo's Fedora-Extras directory which I compiled and installed.

The latest command line I've tried, after booting in Single User Mode and 'SELINUX=0' is:

bash#mondoarchive -Oc 24 -9 -d ATAPI:1,0,0 -s 700m -g

It makes it all the way to: 'backing up file system'. Then at about CDR 1: 63%, it crashes. In a manner that's like some flipped the power switch. The laptop completely shuts off, instantly (no shutdown, just off).

Laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A75 w/ P4 1GHz & 1.5 GB ram
