i added this option acpi=on to the end of my grub command line as the following: title Fedora Core (2.4.22-1.2115.nptl) root (hd0,5) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi rhgb acpi=on initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.img but then, every time fedora starts up, it is hanging always when the status shows "set up hostname", so the start up never successfully completed, and i have to switch off the power button manually. what was possibly wrong with setting acpi=on?
