is some sort of loop. Prior to this I had about 235 GB free on my hard
drive. When Myth stopped working I checked the mythbackend log that is
out put on the screen and a saw repeating messages saying my hard drive is full
or something to that effect. Being that machine was locked up <font

sits in my equipment closet in the basement. The only access I have to
the machine is to VNC into in from my windows machine. After the reboot
I can VNC into the machine only to see a blank green screen.<font
