Re: Problems with F7 kernels

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have the same problem. I'm not using a laptop though - my hardware
is an intel mac pro. The system works fine with
kernel-2.6.22.9-91.fc7, but stalls on "Starting udev" using
kernel-2.6.23.1-21.fc7.

I don't have a rescue disk with a 2.6.23 kernel on it. Would that be
something worth trying to get more information about this problem? If
so, could you recommend where I could get a USB stick or cd boot image
for one?

Thanks for any help,
Matt
