I tried "reboot" before and it got nput/output error. has to power off and on machine for rebooting. right now, the machien is in use and I cannot shut it down for testing. maybe later. it looks that it renders all partition as read-only. I don't like such a design. if it crashes, let it crash. why remounting as read-only to play smart? it is better to reboot with "showdown -r -F now" right away rather than getting into such a dumb read-only stage that nobody knows that it has something wrong right away. it took one day to know that this OS has the problem. >From this perspective, I think microsoft way of crasing is a better design. at least you know some wrong right away and reboot the computer automatically can get it fixed. thanks for the help. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
