White <1lnxraider@xxxxxxxxxxx> The system hangs on the reboot (/sbin/halt) command. Could this problem be related to the chipset? I upgraded a Dell 9100 laptop from FC3 to FC4 also using the yum procedure and it reboots and shuts down normally. The problem system uses a SOYO SY-P4VGM motherboard. I've tried selinux=0 on the boot line to eliminated selinux as the culprit.
