I used yumex to do a full update on my laptop, having it remove the most recent kernel as well. Then, after making sure that /boot/grub/grub.conf was current, I had it install the most recent kernel again. The kernel showed up again, correctly and there was a new /boot/grub2/grub.cfg written during the install. I tried rebooting to the new kernel. The teardrop appeared, and vanished, followed by a long list of reports from systemd. Then, SELinux reported that it needed to relabel things, warning that it might take a long time, followed by a report that it was building the volatile files and directories. It sat there, with no disk activities for about ten minutes, when I tried again with the same results. As always, booting into the last good F14 kernel works exactly as it should. (As far as I can tell, no SELinux relabeling needed under that kernel.) I don't want to set up a kickstart file to make sure that my UserID stays at 500, and to get the rest of my programs properly installed but it seems like that might be the only way to fix this. And, of course, I need to upgrade my desktop before F14 reaches EOL, but what's been going on with my laptop makes me worry because I need to have at least one of them up and running properly. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
