Full Version: reboot/shutdown broken after a cooker 2008.1
MandrivaUsers.org > Advanced Topics > Cooker

Hi,

I successfully installed all latest cooker 2008.1 packages onto my 2008.0 powerpack system because I was missing some 2008.0 packages etc but now the reboot/shutdown etc commands don't work e.g. 'reboot' from root or user terminal start but there's blank space underneath for over 30 seconds and the terminal session window can be closed

I can't find any solutions.

I didn't create a swap because there's 4GB ram.

Space/partitions:

I've reinstalled 'bootsystem', 'initscripts' and 'sysvinit' but it's the same.

I renamed and replaced some files with the updated .rpmnew etc files .orig.

Is there a file which has been misconfigured causing this?

Is there anyway to safely reboot/shutdown now?

Would a hardware reset affect the updates?

Thanks
Tom

Does it work with the equivalent commands "init 0" and "init 6" or not?

Thanks for the reply.

init 0 works until it gets to 'Unmounting file systems'. The cursor has been blinking there for about 10 minutes

In KDE Control Centre.........KDE Components..........Session Manager......General ......... Have you checked thst there are ticks in the two boxes ???.


If there are not then select them both then click Apply and see if that works.

Cheers. John.

Hi,

I wasn't able to bring up X again so hardware reboot and boot failed so installed 2008.1 free iso which is a massive improvement.

Thanks for help
