The only problem is that the system hangs after entering "reboot". I can see that several services get stopped, but after some seconds the screen is just black and nothing happens anymore.
Does it hang after the shutdown process is totally complete, or somewhere in between? (If so, what is the last thing you see on screen?) How long have you waited for it to proceed?
After pressing ESC to see all the service shutdown messages the last two lines show:
init: Re-executing /sbin/init [OK] Please stand by while rebooting the system... Restarting system.
So it hangs after shutdown has been completed. I've waited more than 10 minutes.
How much RAM? On startup it will be checking the RAM, and possible other things, and I think this happens right at the beginning of startup sequence.
The system has 8GB RAM.
Perhaps this bug is related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731114
Thanks Fabian. The kernel parameter "reboot=pci" that is mentioned in the Bugzilla entries solves the issue for me.
Best regards, Bernd.
