Hi!

Greetings,

Apparently this is a consistent bug. I, myself, have two machines displaying
this, the only two that went through an upgrade.

There is discussion and suggestions for a user-oriented fix here:
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=287584

Is this the way to remedy this, or will there be a bug-fix release
distributed as an RPM?

I believe it has been discussed before, you need to replace

SYSFONT=... for vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16
KEYTABLE=... for vconsole.keymap=en (<-- Your locale)

In /etc/default/grub

And run grub2-mkconfig

Much thanks for the advice.

After making sense of an /etc/default/grub on a fresh F18 install, I copied it to one of my upgraded-to-F18 machines (keeping the original grub file elsewhere).

I ran grub2-mkconfig, but didn't see a change to /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.

I don't know what's designed or a bug here, but I outputed the results of grubg2-mkconfig to a file, and then copied it to /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, making sure to keep the original grub.cfg elsewhere.

I rebooted the machine and it seems that the error messages are gone, and I get a standard issue F18 splash screen on bootup.

What I described was not in any of the instructions I had read elsewhere.

I'm just concerned that it didn't follow the letter of instructions that were given.

Or is that just too much neurosis?
