From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040421 Description of problem: After upgrading from FC1 to FC2 rebooting the system will hang at the point where it says "turning off swap". Trying to do "swapoff -a" will hang forever as well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): util-linux.2.12-18 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. swapoff -a Actual Results: Nothing, it hangs Expected Results: Aything else but a hang. Not turning of swapping while rebooting shouldn't be much of a problem I imagine so I could just take it out but I'd rather fix the problem. Additional info: A similar problem seems to have been reported for SuSE but without any infromation that I could use to fix the problem: http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2003-Nov/3666.html The thread seems to suggest that having SCSI disks might be at the heart of the problem and that is possible because at the moment of the conversion from FC1 to FC2 the system contained an Adaptec SCSI card with 2 CDROM drives. The card (and drives) have since been removed from the system. Unfortunately I cannot test anymore if putting them back would make everything work again.
This would probably be the kernel. If you can't reproduce the problem now, then there's no point in working together on a fix. :\
