A quick piece of review then on to day's failures.
Back in December? I was working on installing F20-64 on my Lenovo x120e
and could not update NVRAM. You here helped me get a working system.
============ now on to recent history =============
Then the audio started getting flacky and could tell if it was hardware
or a software update (headphones worked, but not built in speakers). So
I picked up another x120e from ebay that had an oem Windows7 on it. I
pulled that drive and put in my drive from the old system. I figured
that since it was working without nvram info it would work in another
box. And it did. For a while.
Then one reboot after a kernel update, it would not reboot. A long set
of messages and then failure to sync drive and powering off. I found
that if I hit s or <ctl-s> a lot of times at the right point it would
boot up. I rebooted as little as possible and only applied updates when
gnome would freeze up (in a tty session). Finally it got too bad, and I
put the drive back into the old system with the flacky audio where I am
right now.
===================== Finally today's failures =================
So I ordered a new SSD drive and today set about installing F20-64. See
bug 975537, and no, Adam, I did not save anything. Instead I set about
doing an i386 install! That seemed to go ok until I got to the reboot.
It goes through a reboot and shuts off. I have tried with <alt-d> to
catch any messages, but none that I can see. :(
So now what? Adam, I CAN do another x64 install and if you give me the
steps to rescue any logs (you mean they were not part of the upload?) I
will attach them to the bug report.
Or I COULD do a rawhide install. Point me where to get the ISO image
and I am willing it give it a go. I DO at least have this system to
work from.
thank you for your support. Now I think I will try that Fedora 20 arm
install again. This time recable my monitor so I have direct hdmi
connection to get me through firstboot.
