Description Steve Wardell 2004-09-13 05:47:29 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3)
Gecko/20040912 Firefox/0.10

Description of problem:
After a fresh installation of FC3 Test 2 RC 0908 build on my AMD
Duron, the boot looks normal. A grey screen loads (after all the
services have come up), the mouse is visible and can be moved, but the
normal first boot configuration or a login screen do not come up.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try (Since I want to be able to gather requested data that may
be needed to solve before rebooting)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do clean fresh install of FC3T2 RC 0908
2. Do first reboot after install
    

Actual Results:  The services load, then grey screen comes up with
mouse that is not hung, but nothing else loads even after several minutes.

Expected Results:  Expect firstboot configuration questions to come up.

Additional info:

Not sure if this is the information needed, but here's last few lines
from messages.log. Let me know if there's other information that you
need gathered:

Comment 1 Steve Wardell 2004-09-13 13:58:07 UTC 
Update: I let the system sit all night just as it was. In the morning
the login screen was showing, but no firstboot. The log since the log
above is listed below.

Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2004-09-13 16:02:44 UTC 
should be fixed with the latest rhgb package (0.12.6)
Comment 3 Adrian Likins 2004-09-13 16:03:32 UTC 
*** Bug 132391 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 4 Steve Wardell 2004-09-14 04:52:10 UTC 
I installed the new package, rebooted and it loaded up fine. Probably
not going to be able to do a fresh install to retest with new package,
but probably can be marked fixed.
