Hi,
I have fedora 12 installed on my laptop. I had installed youtube-dl package
and downloaded a youtube video from the net.
While shutting down the system, I noticed the rpcbind failed message during
shutdown process. It came up twice.
Today morning, when I restarted, I am able to get into windows.
On linux, its taking forever. I dont see any text console when I do
ctrl-alt-f1 or ctrl-alt-f2.
Does it use grub or grub2? If grub, then just edit the line beginning
with 'kernel' to end with 'single' (i.e. add the boot option 'single').
See if it boots into single user. If it does, try 'startx' as root (I
sort of remember something bad occasionally happening if you do this -
like .ICEAuthority getting owned by root but give it a shot anyway).
That should get you started on figuring it out.
