Description of problem: After system update the system startup will halt for about 20 minutes because the init IPv6 is segfaulting and consuming all of the system CPU time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-8.40-1 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC6test3; 2. Perform a system update with yum; Actual results: System will have a lot of difficulty to start up again. There is no lockup, but it will take a lot of time the system will past the network startup. Expected results: No such issues. Additional info: If I do get the system up and issue "/etc/init.d/network restart" then I get this: [root@lappar ~]# /etc/init.d/network restart /etc/init.d/network: line 54: 2240 Segmentation fault /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/init.ipv6-global stop pre Shutting down loopback interface: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-eth: line 67: 2364 Segmentation fault /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-ipv6 ${CONFIG} [ OK ] /etc/init.d/network: line 54: 2432 Segmentation fault /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/init.ipv6-global stop post </etc/init.d/network: line 54: 2498 Segmentation fault /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/init.ipv6-global start pre Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Bringing up interface eth0: Determining IP information for eth0... done.
