OT: Fedora Interactive boot option...

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Long ago Redhat and early Fedora versions had the option of pressing the 
letter i at boot to have it request for loading of the individual kernel options.

Used it long ago, but haven't seen it for a long time, and search show the old 
one, but not how it was done, or if it was something only on the redhat.

Have a project that I have handled since 2004, and it works fine using 
kernel.org source code to build on versions up to my current Fedora 28 
system.

Have an user with an IBM Thinkpad t440p and it freezes with all 5 of the 
kernels that are included, plus with safe mode options, and debug options.
Originally, the last message was about ata8 device. Built a special kernel 
with all ata modules removed, and lock just showed a different last message, 
so am thinking it is what loads next that is freezing. 

Looked thru the kernel options, and don't see anything about an interactive 
option.  

Just wondering if someone might know how that interactive boot process was 
done.

Thanks.
