I had
a problem similar to this last night, and it turned out that on screen 7
(ctl-alt-F7) the machine was waiting for me to enter setup information for
Fedora. Weird, since I’d already
entered this stuff months ago. I
went through it again and it seemed to work fine after
that!
Hope
this helps!

Subject: 1st reboot
after FC2 *full* install
Hi
all,
I'm
trying to install a full(!) FC2 installation on a Celeron 2GHZ. I didn't
really had problems doing that except that, on first reboot, the machine stops
on "Enabling swap space" phase.
I tried
that on another machine (Celeron 2.6GHz(?)) and the same problem
occurs.
I
installed FC1 on same machines before with no problems at
all.
Can
anyone help why is this happening and how to avoid it?
(In
fact I know a way to avoid it: First I install a (typical) personal desktop.
After first (successful) reboot, shutdown and reinstall again(!). Now, I
should choose Custom installation with Manually partition (keep partitions
without formatting!) and finally choose to install Everything - But life
shouldn't be so hard :-) )
Please
don't tell me I don't need every packages on the four FC2 disks: I'm just
a newbie to Linux (although not to Unix...).
By the
way... How can I install *Everything* after a succesful FC2 instalation,
without having to reinstall?
Thanks
in advance,
JC
