Fedora 10 Boot hang

[Praveen Raj S (pravee1216)]

Yes, I got the solution and found success. This is a Fedora-SCSI issue which can be solved with the following

1) Boot from rescue mode (use Fedora10 DVD )
2) chroot /mnt/sysimage/
3) /sbin/mkinitrd -f --with=scsi_wait_scan /boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.PAE.img 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.PAE

Note: Please replace "initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.PAE.img" and "2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.PAE" with the correct distro image & version you have (applicable in case of any change )

4) exit
5) reboot

That's it. Now Fedora can scan SCSI and boot from /dev/root.

Cheers

Praveen Raj
