Attached traceback automatically from anaconda.
This happened when rebooting at the end of a preupdate from F14 to F15. Actually, I ran the preupdate a few days ago, in order to accumulate the rpm's in the /var/cache/hum/upgrade/... directory. A day or so later, I was urged by PackageKit to install some 1400 updates, which turned out to be for F15. I installed only the 3 security updates. I backed up the system just before rerunning preupdate. During the reboot, the system seemed to run very slowly. Then, I discovered touching the CTRL key caused it to advance. It was as if it were scrolling, and waiting for a keypress to continue. This system has 500 M of memory. Maybe that's not enough. Created attachment 519398 [details]

Previous traceback resulted from trying to preupgrade from F14 to F16 Alpha. Still seems to crash the same way. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 705950 *** |
