-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Eric, I have a 2TB Raid1 array running Fedora 9 and it has *no* issues at all, I've gone through boot up and shut down numerous times with no difference between tries. This does sound like a motherboard inconsistency. When you say it won't boot do you mean it gets past grub and hangs? or does it not even get to grub?
