Re: One of my systems stalls at start-up

2014-09-07 Thread Nathan Schwarz
It should still write to the systemlog; yank in a live-version or fedora installation (in case of fedora installation disk/usb hit ctrl-alt-f[234]; on of these takes you to a terminal), mount the root-partition and take a look at the log. - Nathan Unrelated ps: Is there a reason you use HTML-mail

One of my systems stalls at start-up

2014-09-07 Thread Antonio M
When I start one of my systems, sometimes it stalls, even using Esc to see what is going on, I cannot enter the text mode.If I issue a Ctrl+Alt+Del, it switches to text mode but it is so fast that I cannot read anything.. Any advice is appreciated (is systemd to be blamed?) -- Antonio Montagnani
