Hello all,
I just updated the fedora core with all it's new patches and now the machine seems to be hosed. On reboot, I get the following message:
"Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes" - Any ideas? I have had nothing but problems with Fedora.
I have no clue what is going on here. I tried to get the machine in run level 3, but I still can't get it to work. Here is a copy of the /etc/inittab file:
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are: # 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this) # 1 - Single user mode # 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking) # 3 - Full multiuser mode # 4 - unused # 5 - X11 # 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this) # id:3:initdefault:
