Hello Everyone,

Not sure if anyone else happens to have the Compaq Presario F700 sold by
Wal-Mart.  If you do, and you happen to run Fedora 10 does your plymouth
stick?  Here is what I have thus discovered and the scenarios:

1.  During startup, plymouth with stop right at the beginning. 
2.  I press ESC and plymouth steps through its first item, Reading
Physical volumes.  
3.  I hold the Alt key down until udev has started at which point it
still requires me to give some type of input (I just hold Alt down) if
the AC power is not plugged in; otherwise it begins booting just fine.  

I also had this same issue when trying to install Fedora 10 before
Anaconda had started.  

I'm wondering if perhaps there isn't something wrong with the initrd
image?

Brandon
