It seems like it is only the anaconda/f13 upgrade boot that consistently would hang for 20 minutes. All of the /var/log/anaconda.* log files start at the moment the system got unstuck after the 20 minute hang. No help there. This system is a 2.8GHz P4 system with only 512MB RAM. The only issue I have had so far after the upgrade is a small evolution problem with my imap account. birger -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
