You could try making the directory, changing its ownership to djmons:djmons, then seeing if KDE or Gnome creates the files it needs when you log in. But it's probably easier to login as someone else, remove the broken user, delete the homespace, and create that user again. > I've never had such problems before with Fedora like this. > > Is firstboot crashing a known problem? Haven't seen that, but have seen something similar when I decided to see what would happen if I created a user outside of /home. I entered a different path into the gadget in system-config-users, one that did have all the right SELinux contexts set up (for user homespaces), in advance. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
