What does your /etc/fstab look like?

Comment 3 Stephen Gray 2006-04-02 03:41:05 UTC

/etc/fstab from fc4 installtion

Attached.

/home/stephen/homelocal which featured in the crash dump is mapped to a fat32
partition in fstab. If I remove this line from fstab and reboot I can get past
the point where the crash occured without problem. I have not proceded any
farther than this so can provide more info about fc4 config if you need it.

Thanks,
Steve

This should be fixed in later releases of Fedora.
