I mostly use my main f10. any suggestions? I dont know for sure, but I think this was not occurring on my previous days, weeks occasional boots of this f11. Reinstall only option? I havent done anything with fd0, so I am mystified. tia Jack -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
