Description of problem: After a fresh install of Fedora 2 test 2, when I boot up it is just stuck at "updating /etc/fstab". So I installed again, but this time booted into init 3 intead of 5 and notice a kernel oops, here is what I pull booting form serial console (x86_64 FC2 test 2): INIT: Entering runlevel: 3 Entering non-interactive startup Checking for new hardware----------- [cut here ] --------- [please bite here ] --------- Kernel BUG at generic:664 invalid operand: 0000 [1] CPU 0 Pid: 895, comm: modprobe Not tainted RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff801cc059>] <ffffffff801cc059>{remove_proc_entry+197} RSP: 0018:000001003e257ec8 EFLAGS: 00010206 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: 000001003f7af1a0 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 000001003f7af1a0 RSI: 000001003f7af22f RDI: 000001003f7af1a0 RBP: 00000100024689a8 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 000001003f9d0000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 000001003f7af228 R13: 0000000000000007 R14: 000000000040e9a0 R15: 00000000005387e8 FS: 0000002a958624c0(0000) GS:ffffffff804ab600(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 0000002a956e4750 CR3: 0000000000101000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Process modprobe (pid: 895, stackpage=1003fd87da0) Stack: 00000000005387e8 0000010002468948 000001003f7af228 ffffffffa0151680 0000000000000000 ffffffff803e82c0 0000000000000080 ffffffff801551b3 0000000000000001 0000000037ff8b38 Call Trace:<ffffffff801551b3>{sys_delete_module+281} <ffffffff80176549>{do_munmap+639} <ffffffff8017659b>{sys_munmap+69} <ffffffff80111ef6>{system_call+126} Code: 0f 0b 73 b5 32 80 ff ff ff ff 98 02 8b 83 80 00 00 00 85 c0 RIP <ffffffff801cc059>{remove_proc_entry+197} RSP <000001003e257ec8> [ OK ] Updating /etc/fstab So basically if I'm mr average user my system is useless, and just stays at "updating fstab" point after booting it up. But if I go into interactive mode and skip kudzu, everything goes through fine, execpt my cdrom never gets setup (not sure what else may have gotten missed) so I have to manually do it (make /dev/cdrom symlink, make /mnt/cdrom/, make the fstab entry)... This happens on both x86_64 FC 2 test 2 and i386 FC 2 test 2. I'm running a Athlon 64 3200+ Asus K8V Geforce FX 5900 1 GiG RAM (2x512MB Crucial)
Also just to add, if you skip kudzu the first time, and run it manually after the first bootup, it doesn't seem to have this problem at bootup anymore...but it fails to setup anything that it didn't the first time (my cdrom).
My last post was false ( I had cut kudzu off on boot)....it hangs everytime on boot at "Updating /etc/fstab".
April 2nd development tree seems to resolve this issue.
Could you be more specific as to what you did to solve this. I am having the same problem (basically have the same system) and now am running with kudzu out of rc5.d. I have tried updated to rawhide kudzu-1.1.54-1 and that did not seem to fix it. thanks
