I'm having the same problem, intermittently, with kernel 3.18.3. I haven't had a chance to do much regression testing though, and have since moved to 3.19 kernels which don't seem to have this problem. The handful of 3.18.3 boots I've tried, it always booted with nomodeset; and only intermittently failed without it. So I figured it was some video regression... What happens if you remove 'rhgb quiet' and add 'nomodeset' parameter? -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
