Description of problem: If i launch FC5 with init 3 mode, I have a kernel panic ! How reproducible: everytimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. edit grub 2. add "init 3" at the end 3. boot Actual results: Crash Additional info: I have this problem with : - kernel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC5.x86_64 - kernel-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.x86_64 My current solution : edit /etc/inittab file to swicth init level.
Simply add "3" to the end of your kernel line. Passing "init" is only valid if you're telling the kernel to run a script or program other than /sbin/init after the kernel loads. And FYI, editing /etc/inittab is the proper way to boot into run-level 3 by default.
ok, thank you.
