Created attachment 638254 [details] Photo of the screen with the error message Description of problem: After Fedora 17 was installed from DVD and reboot was requested, I pushed the button and the computer displayed kernel panic. Nothing worked, I had to switch the computer off and on. The computer started booting, grub menu was displayed, Fedora was selected and within a few seconds kernel panic occured. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-17-i386-DVD.iso downloaded on 7 September 2012 How reproducible: I have not tried to repeat installation, so I do not know... Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: No boot Expected results: Additional info: Hardware: Notebook ASUS M6B00 (M6R) with WiFi Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG The last OS installed was Fedora 13 The output of df -h from Fedora 13: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/hadr-pradan 20G 6.8G 12G 37% / tmpfs 241M 276K 241M 1% /dev/shm /dev/sda1 99M 59M 36M 63% /boot /dev/mapper/hadr-ghar 111G 88G 18G 84% /home /dev/mapper/hadr-opt 3.0G 2.3G 474M 84% /opt /dev/mapper/hadr-jagah 9.7G 8.4G 886M 91% /usr/local Filesystem of /boot is ext2, filesystem of othe disk partitions is ext3 I requested formatting /boot as ext2, / as ext3 and swap. During installation I requested as additional repositories "Fedora" and "Fedora updates", not the "testing updates" Attached is the photo of the screen after boot. The first kernel panic looked similar but I did not take a photo. After showing the kernel panic the computer stopped working. I hope that some log files are on the disk. I can remove the disk, read it on another computer and send any file that can help to find the source of the problem and the way how to remedy it

I tried to boot Fedora 13 Live (I found the CD) but it reported filesystem problem on the disk and the system did not boot at all. I have removed the disk, connected via SATA->USB device as an external USB disk to a x86_64 desktop machine running Fedora 17. I have mounted all LVM partitions and copied the files. I have also verified that I can mount the /boot partition. After unmounting I have run e2fsck on the /boot partition. Finally I have returned the disk to the notebook and now it boots. > During installation I requested as additional repositories "Fedora" and > "Fedora updates", not the "testing updates" > > Attached is the photo of the screen after boot.
