I am guessing the boot process paused to allow fsck to run one of its periodic checks. I am going to disable that useless progress bar. As an aside: I have four 1 TB drives in this system, and I dread seeing the "this drive has been booted 28 times without a check" warning when I reboot. In my experience, fsck takes around 35 minutes to check a 1 TB drive. :((( Thanks, Tim, for the quick response and sorry to everyone about the false alarm. ----- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://lim.nl -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/F10%3A-boot-hangs-after-yesterday%27s-yum-updates-tp21827551p21828757.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
