I'm not sure about the exact component, but I suspect the dracut. The machine is a laptop, so I don't have a serial port to debug it on-line. Please help me to figure out what's happening (I'll file a bugreport, just want to ensure it will be useful). Some info: My boot process slows down at the end of plymouth theme "charging" and finally it shines bug I don't get X cursor and gdm. I can press Esc at this moment and the only message I see is about deprecated "modules.conf". System reacts on Ctrl+Alt+Del. System boots seamlessly with the older kernel (2.6.31-14.fc12.x86_64). -- Best regards, Sergey Rudchenko -- fedora-test-list mailing list <a href="mailto:fedora-test-list@redhat.com">fedora-test-list@redhat.com</a> To unsubscribe: <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list" target="_blank">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list</a> </blockquote></div> Hello Sergey , If you're able to boot in previous kernel ,do so and do : $ su - c ' gedit /boot/grub/grub.conf ' after the #hiddenmenu , you will see the following title Fedora (2.6.31-33.fc12.x86_64) root (hd0,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-33.fc12.x86_64 ro root=UUID=xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx rhgb quiet (and maybe other kernel line arguments) Delete "rhgb quiet" and save the file . Then reboot ,and after the grub screen ,press escape to see the messages. You'll see some more info appearing then before ,and that info could give me a hint as where to look further. Greetings, -- Tack Martin
