Is it booting bios or EFI? Where do the timeout counter start if not at the value you specify? Do you see the same problem with f17? If not then I would guess that the problem is the secure boot patches - try to build your own rpm without them. (/etc/sysconfig/grub is a stupid fedora specific alias - better say /etc/default/grub to match what the rest of the world knows.) It's a qemu guest, so it's (Sea-)BIOS. The counter appears to be zero, or very close to zero. Didn't try F17. I'm trying to do everything with F18/Rawhide in order to shake out the (very many) bugs in F18. However I haven't seen this sort of bug before. I don't see any problem here running f18 in kvm on f17. Seems unlikely that it makes any difference, but the host I'm using is: kernel-3.6.0-0.rc1.git3.2.bz844485.4.fc19.x86_64 [*] qemu-kvm-1.2-0.3.20120806git3e430569.fc19.x86_64 seabios-1.7.0-4.rwmj1.fc19.x86_64 [**] vgabios-0.6c-4.fc17.noarch sgabios-0-1.1.20110622svn.fc19.x86_64 [*] Fedora kernel with a couple of really unrelated bug fixes [**] same as seabios 1.7.0-3 but with debugging added This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
