In you previous email this URL contains a log with a command line that doesn't include enforcing=0.

selinux-policy-3.12.1-74.19.fc19 is stable as of four days ago. There's a newer kernel stable also.

OK keep these additions to boot params, with one addition:
 systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=kmsg log_buf_len=1M enforcing=0 systemd.unit=rescue.target


echo 1 >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
echo s >/proc/sysrq-trigger
echo u >/proc/sysrq-trigger
echo o >/proc/sysrq-trigger

Does that power down the laptop? If not, it's probably a kernel bug. I'd go back to an old kernel that you know worked and test that. And then file a bug against the kernel noting the last kernel it works with and the first one it doesn't. Note the computer make/model, and firmware version, and the fact it's UEFI.

If it does power it off, then test the same boot parameter but use the poweroff command instead of the sysrq trigger.


The above series of commands do not power off the system, it resets it.  Same with the poweroff command.

What's strange is I was running 3.13.5-103 kernel without issues until I turned the power off by hitting the switch.

I tried 2 earlier kernels, 3.12.11-201 and 3.13.5-101.  Both of these worked, i.e. the system went straight to the graphical login and a shutdown resulted in the system powering off.  What's interesting is that I tried the 3.13.5-101 kernel a couple of days ago and it went straight to rescue mode as well.  I also checked and all modules got loaded so it looks like I can boot the older kernel and try to do an update and see if the most recent kernel exhibits the same problem.

A couple of other issues. First when I boot the kernel with the above recommended options it looks like I get 2 shells. 

What I see is the following:

Welcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
Welcome to rescue mode! Type "systemctl default" or ^D to enter default mode.
system logs, ......

After I provide my password I get the expected prompt, when I hit return I get another password prompt, another return gives me the command prompt again.  I can't type any commands in.  If I do Ctrl-Alt-Delete, and wait a while, then I manage to have only one password prompt.   The other issue is that when I plug my USB stick in the kernel detects it, since I see the messages on the console, however, it doesn't create a device node and running fdisk -l does not show the device. 
 
I'm going to remove the systemd.unit=rescue.target parameter

The laptop firmware is for sure up to date?


The system was purchased in December of 2013, but I have not checked for an update.
