Unhappy qUESTION


Hi i recently installed FC2 on a dell machine and ran up2date.. the kernel etc got updated ..to most recent being Fedora core 2.6.10.1.771_FC2.. I installed FC2 after removing Win XP completely

when irestarted the machine and selected the above version on boot.....the machine gets stuck at "setting up system clock" and it would stay there forever!..


I had to do a hard restart and get into 2.6.5 FC2 kernel to get the machine started..

how do i solve this problem?.. please help..

looks like an ACPI bug in the kernel
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=148755

rather than run without acpi i think i would use the older kernel
