------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] features the Upstart initialization system.  All System V init scripts should run fine in compatibility mode. However, users who have made customizations to their `/etc/inittab` file will need to port those modifications to upstart. For information on how upstart works, see the `init(8)` and `initctl(8)` man pages. For information on writing upstart scripts, see the `events(5)` man page, and also [http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html the Upstart Getting Started Guide].
  
+ == NetworkManager ==
+ 
+ Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] features NetworkManager 0.7 provides improved mobile broadband support, including GSM and CDMA devices, and now supports multiple devices and ad-hoc networking for sharing connections. It is now enabled by default on all installations. When using NetworkManager, be aware of the following:
+ 
+ * NetworkManager does not support all virtual device types
+ 
+   Users who use bridging, bonding, or vlans may need to switch to the old `network` service after configuration of those interfaces.
+ 
+ * NetworkManager starts the network asynchronously
+   Users who have applications that require the network to be fully initialized during boot should set the `NETWORKWAIT` variable in `/etc/sysconfig/network`. Please [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora file bugs] about cases where this is necessary, so we can fix the applications in question.
