Description of problem: I downloaded Fedora 10 Preview release to install and test it on my system. I used the netinst CD image. The installation went fine. But the kernel don't boot. After grub loaded the kernel I see for a short time the message: ACPI: Invalid PBLK length [5] Then on the lower left side some blue progress bar is seen, shortly after this the assertion message: plymouthd: ply-boot-splash.c: 283: ply_boot_splash_root_mounted: Assertion `sp != ((void *)0)' failed. appears and the system hangs. My hardware: ASUS P4PE mainboard (i845PE) Pentium 4 2400 MHz AGP Radeon 9200/9250 video card 3ware Escalade 7500-LP for storage Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 10 Preview (Fedora-10-Preview-i386-netinst.iso) How reproducible: Every time I boot. I also tried to boot: - without rhgb option - without rhgb and with nomodeset option - with rhgb and with nomodeset option The result is always the same. Are there any other options I can try? I searched through the Fedora wiki but rhgb and nomodeset were the only related options I found so far. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora 10 2. Boot it Actual results: Kernel throw an assertion during boot sequence Expected results: Kernel shall boot normally Additional info: Mainboard: ASUS P4PE CPU: Pentium 4, 2.4 GHz Videocard: Radeon 9200/9250 graphics adapter Storage: 3ware Escalade 7500-LP
