It looked like my Apple USB modem was causing all sorts of trouble when TM was running its initial backup. Kernel loadable modules in backtrace (with dependencies): com.apple.driver.AppleSM56KUSBAudio(1.9.14)@0x7f228000->0x7f242fff -- from error console I unplugged it and I have yet to have freeze or a crash (knock on wood). The bad news is I can no longer send and receive faxes. _____________________ Craig Hoffman iChat / AIM: m0untaind0g _____________________ On Nov 8, 2007, at 4:48 AM, David R.
