So I can be assured that variation in the boot process is eliminated as a factor in any problem I'm seeing. To use the NetworkManager case as an example, I boot with multi-thread, see the error, save the boot record. Then, boot with single thread / process, don't get the error, and save the boot record. Compare them, and the clue to what is going wrong is highlighted. When I looked at the options, no obvious way to do this popped out, so I thought I would tap the collective wisdom. If you know more than one, I'd be happy to hear them all. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
