From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: when you power up a dell laptop cp/i r 4000 after a great fedora install the system start to load and then before the screen that you select wheaher you want to shows details.. or not..1 sec later you see the words shutdown. and the system stop booting...and shuts down...power off. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.power on 2.loading begins 3.you see the words shutdown/ and then it shuts down Actual Results: shuts down Expected Results: fedora to boot all the way.... Additional info:
When you get to the boot menu after poweron, press 'e' to edit the boot commands. Then temporarily disable the graphical boot by deleting the 'rhgb' at the end of the second line. The system will boot and stay in text mode, and we should see some messages that give us more hints.
after tring the above thats comment #1 the following occurs everything boots fine until after the following.. Fedora core etc etc etc..... press I for interactive etc etc etc then i get the following error.. critical temp reach -296 c, shutting down couple of disk drive messages shutdown.. system shuts down.
Oh wow, -296 C? Is it always -296 C? Traced this to drivers/acpi/thermal.c which happily calls poweroff. Can you try booting with acpi=off appended to the kernel command line? Note that this isn't a fix, just a workaround. You should be able to boot, though.
work around works... boots all the way... thanks
