Permission denied? Did you do a network install? If so you likely got an older systemd and hence are hitting https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788829 . > * No option to Reboot.

Usually you can switch to a VT, log in, and reboot from there - but when you're hitting 788829 you can't, because you can't log in to a VT either. ctrl-alt-del might do the trick, though. > * GDM login succeeded.

I was hitting that up until recently, found that it does eventually manage to shut down / reboot if you leave it long enough (2-3 mins). Seems to have gone away with the latest packages, not sure what fixes it, but I have fast reboot/shutdown now. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
