CDLABEL=...? linux (hd0,8)/17/64/vmlinuz root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora\x2017-Alpha\x20x86_64 repo=hd:/dev/sda8:/17/64 initrd (hd0,8)/17/64/initrd.img boot It fails differently.

The prompt returned endlessly. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
