Description of problem: I've installed FC5 to my Acer Aspire 1692 WLMi laptop but FC5 hangs completely during boot when "Starting udev" is displayed." I boot into rescue mode and ran sh -x /sbin/start_udev and last line on screen was when the script was looping (loop counter was at 167) and was testing for udev/queue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): udev from FC5. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC5 to a Acer Aspire 1692 laptop 2. Boot 3. See how system hangs Actual results: System hangs on boot. Expected results: System start ups normally. Additional info: If you need more info just let me know and I'll provide it.
Actually, this might be relevant: I had to install FC5 in text mode because when tried installing in graphical mode, X did not start but screen remained completely blank after the "Starting X server" and I had to hit Ctrl+Alt+BS to reboot to system.
have you looked at bug #186164 ??
Sorry, missed that, this is clearly a duplicate. Please close this one.
FWIW, the pcmciautils-012-0.FC5.1.i386.rpm package solved my problem with Acer Aspire 1692.
