That will show a lot of info and the odds are that it's not autofs that's messing up, but rather something subsequent, most likely acpi. You might also try adding "noacpi" to the boot command and see if that fixes it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - grep me no patterns and I'll tell you no lines - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
