You can then cut and paste a *single* line beginning with linux16 /vmlinuz etc. If you can get it, the one from the first menuentry would be the best, as that is the line that is probably booting. You can use the mouse to highlight the text, and then use a center click to paste it into an email. If you use konsole as your xterm, you can save the text to the clipboard with ctrl-shift-c, and paste it into the mail with ctrl-v. Unless, you have kde installed, you probably will not have konsole installed. It won't have the same options as my line; it's highly customized. My definition of like is obviously a lot more sloppy than yours is. I meant 'general form', you interpreted 'identical'. But it will start with the linux16 /vmlinuz The idea is that it will show if there are any unusual kernel options on that line that might be causing your problem. And if it has quiet on it that would explain why you aren't seeing boot messages. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/IOUVBA2B6Q3Z67NDYHFWVFGUNW54HFP5/
