My desktop has been running FC2 with no problems, until the screen froze this a.m. and I had to re-boot. As it was starting up, I noticed there were three kernel options -- I think it must have yum-updated the kernel last night (I usually keep two kernel versions on hand). However, the following problem happened whichever kernel I chose. It would get to the 'Welcome to Fedora' screen, and then go blank with the hourglass -- as you usually see before the various services get started. But it would go no further; every so often the screen would refresh, but the blank screen with hourglass would re-appear, ad infinitum. It doesn't get to the screen with the progress bar and 'Show details' option, so I have no idea how to begin debugging this problem. Any suggestions on where to start would be greatly appreciated! -Paul
