Description of problem, bug, incorrect information, or enhancement request: Version of release notes this bug refers to: Fedora Core 4 final release System: AT, AMD K6 350MHz, 169MB, two hard drives: 30 GB and 15GB, two CDROM drives. Three problems: 1. During bootup the system fails on the first several attempts to find the second hard drive - times out. It eventually does work however. 2. The X subsystem works OK, but is unable to switch to a text screen for the virtual terminals. The switch to the terminal occurs but the terminal text is not visible. 3. The system will not reboot. It hangs at the point where the hard drives are accessed. Turning the power supply off and then on again usually works but, sometimes (and this is weird) the on-off switch produces no effect at all for several minutes. At the end of that time everything works fine (although problem 1, above, is still active.)

This sounds like a number of different bugs, some possibly kernel related, some related to X. But none of these are release notes related. The link you used to file this bug was for release notes only, meaning it's not for filing problems with Fedora Core itself, but for problems with the release notes. Out of curiosity, and to help us figure out how to notate our hyperlinks better, where did you get the link to file this bug?
Looks like http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc5/#sn-Feedback taking into considering the template. We have no way to clarify that further. We should probably add a section "Feedback to Fedora" and ask link the appropriate notes there.
Sorry, I don't quite understand the suggestion in comment #3 ... since the source for this is Docs/Beats/Feedback, do you want to make a change there to demonstrate? Otherwise, we can close this as NOTABUG.
Yes, done so at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Feedback. Closing bug report.
