For some reason, when I installed FC3, I got two kernels,
one for SMP, the other for uniprocessing.
Although I only have one processor,
the SMP version was made the default.
Unless I was quick enough to stop it, the SMP version would
run for a while and freeze. The reset button produced an
unclean reboot. After about three of those, the filesystems
were corrupted beyond repair. I had to reinstall.
My work-around was to edit grub's configuration file to ignore
the SMP version.
Perhaps your update produced a similar evil.
Hi, I got exactly the same problem. I upgaded kernel from
kernel-2.6.10-1.770_FC3 on my HP nx5000 to kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3, Boot
freezed. I troed to boot to the old kernel kernel-2.6.10-1.770_FC3, it
froze too.
Many help to get it started? If I used FC rescure disk, How can revert
current kernel to orignial one?
Thanks a lot
