Hi, Are you sure we are talking about the same issue. In my case I tested several times. Whenever I try starting without the network wire this happens, and never when the network wire is plugged in. I doubt that the network wire adds more memory to the operating system!!! What i was thinking is maybe the os checks for network connection during startup and when it does not find it, it blocks because of a bug in the code that do not handle that case. Is there a way to troubleshoot this? --- On Tue, 9/6/11, Christopher Svanefalk <christopher.svanefalk@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > From: Christopher Svanefalk <christopher.svanefalk@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: Is this a bug? > To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Tuesday, September 6, 2011, 8:08 AM > On 09/06/2011 04:19 PM, Adam Tong > wrote: > > Hi, > > > > After installing F15, I found a problem that did not > happen in the previous versions. > > > > If I start fedora without being wired to internet it > freezes after startup.
