I see that another person has also reported a GPF. I can't install F16betaTC2 with mdadm. The installation's OK but at first reboot, I'm dropped to a "grub rescue" prompt (similar to what happened previously with an alpha but this time with the latest grub2). I tried to boot into Anaconda's rescue mode twice but I got a GPF after hitting "continue" and my computer froze completely. I'm using VirtualBox on OS X. I re-installed and hit the "grub rescue" prompt again. I've unfortunately deleted the two vistual disks but if I have the time later today, I'll do a re-install and both look at the array before Anaconda shuts down and try to bring up it through another install. (I'll add this to BZ 737278.) -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
