Hi,

I suddenly get this message when using Appbrowser with any application I'd like to download.  However, I can surf the net with Opera.  Any suggestion what the problem might be and how it can be rectified?

JoXo009:
Maybe you are run out of loops.

max_loop=100 ore more may be worth a try as additional boot code in the /mnt/hda1/boot/grub/menu.lst kernel line:
kernel /boot/bzImage max_loop=100 home=hda1 kmap=xxxx quiet

longtom:
Loops?  ???  I must admit I have to learn about that one....  What is a loop?

Uuups - loop devices are meant

Each tcz extension needs a loop device.

So did your problem disappear after increasing the device number by max_loop=100?

longtom:
Nope - can't even start up into a Gui anymore....  mount: cannot setup loop[ device: No such file or directory...

Can't remember doing anything offensive - but here I am.
