I'd honestly be surprised if the readahead scripts are the culprit - how did you identify readahead as the problem? The "brokenness" is really mostly about inefficiency, as far as I know. ...but anyway, just boot into single-user mode (append "single" to the boot commandline) or use interactive mode as others have suggested, to chkconfig it off. -Eric -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
