Re problem #2 below, here's what worked for me (on my Vaio PCG-FX190): - boot in interactive mode - Do NOT start kudzu - Continue the boot sequence (side note: sendmail hung on me during one of my boots, but I'm not sure if that was a related problem) - Login as root and remove kudzu from your runlevel 5 services. This got me up and running, although I'm still working on getting my laptop fully configured. I can't explain why it works, but maybe one of the other gurus on the list can. Hope this helps. -Dave Benjamin Fisher wrote: >Recently got a friend interested in Linux. I was helping him install RedHat 8.0. It worked fine. But. > >1.)
