Description of problem: kernel 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.1.fc16.x86_64 does not boot on an original MacBook Air. I removed rhgb and quiet from the boot options and still all I get are the echo lines from the grub.cfg: Loading Fedora (kernel 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64) Loading initial ramdisk ... Usually the system proceeds very quickly past this, but with rc9.git0.0 it seems to just hang forever. I tried acpi=off and noacpi and no change. I also tried creating a new intramfs with dracut to no effect. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora on a Macbook Air (Original) 2. Update to kernel 3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64 3. Reboot Actual results: System does not boot Expected results: System boots Additional info: kernel 3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64 and prior boot just fine
Closing this. It looks like the initrd line was left off when the kernel was adding to the grub2 config. I ran grub2-efi-mkconfig manually and the configuration was generated properly, and the system now boots properly with this kernel. Thank you.
