Hi,
on monday I updated my F12 the last time including the updates-testing
repo. Since then my computer switches of before reaching the gdm login.
I tried to boot without starting X and I also tried other kernels. Still
all the same, computer switches off.
When I read the test-list I saw that Bruno Wolff was having a problem
that sounded like mine. Probably udev is broken.
But what can I do now to fix this? I do not want to reinstall fedora...
is it possible to do something with a liveCD that would fix udev?
Log in to liveCD, mount your f12 partition somewhere, mount --bind the
current /proc to it, chroot to it and do yum update \*udev\*. The new
udev fixed it. (I've done this exact procedure, albeit from F13 instead
of LiveCD.) The udev version that works for me is:
udev-145-19.fc12.i686
