Hello there - I've had a "bit of a problem" upgrading to FC11 on a Dell Latitude E5500, I've googled but can't find anyone having reported a similar problem. I tried to upgrade by selecting the "upgrade to fedora 11" option in the GRUB menu. Everything seemed to go okay - it downloaded a thousand or so packages, said it was doing post-install "stuff" and so forth... didn't see any error messages or anything alarming. Now I'm having problems booting. /sbin/init starts and starts going through the sysV init process in runlevel 5, all startup scripts show an "OK" message except the the HAL daemon and the AVAHI daemon startups, which both show "FAIL". However, it doesn't get through all the startup scripts - halts after displaying an "OK" message for starting proftpd. Even though the startup process is hung, I can still ctrl+alt+f[2-6] to at least login to a terminal. Obviously, for the time being I've just reinstalled an earlier version, but I still have the old partition up and running, so if there's any useful information anyone would like me to gather to find out why this happened/how to fix it I'd be happy to, since to be fair this is a fairly major problem! Also, is there someone else I should let know about this? Do all the Fedora core developers subscribe to this list? Thanks!
