start_udev and X crashing after latest FC3T2 update

[Clyde E. Kunkel]

Finished updated FC3T2 this AM and get error msg unexpected } in line 79
of /sbin/start_udev.  Never get graphical login screen.  Can blindly
login in, open tty2 and reboot.  

Anyone else having these probs?  I am not an expert by any means and
appreciate any help anyone can provide?  

This is a multi-boot machine and am able to look at FC3T2 messages after
booting into FC2 and see the following about X crashing (partial
listing):

Don't know if this is related but udev-032-4 seems broken.

I don't know if this help.


Add "-init 1" to grub (hit 'e').

or

Add "init=/bin/bash"
mount -o rw /


Downgrade :
rpm -U --oldpackage udev....rpm

Thanks...made the changes to udev by hand and that fixed that
prob...still no X.

Well, I booted into single user.  Vied /sbin/start_udev and added a 'fi'
to the code to fix the sintax error (see arrow):

mount_udev() {
        if [ -z "$SELINUX" ]; then
                if [ -n "$selinuxfs" ] && [ "`cat
/proc/self/attr/current`" != "kernel" ]; then
                if [ -r $selinuxfs/enforce ] ; then
                        SELINUX=`cat $selinuxfs/enforce`
                else
                        # assume enforcing if you can't read it
                        SELINUX=1
---->           fi
                fi
        fi
        if [ -n "$SELINUX" -a "$SELINUX" = "1" -o
"$SELINUX" = "enforcing"
]; then
                mount -n -o fscontext=system_u:object_r:device_t,mode=0755 \
                        -t tmpfs none "$udev_root" >/dev/null 2>&1
&&
return 0
        fi
        mount -n -o mode=0755 -t tmpfs none "$udev_root"
        return $?
}

Then I rebooted and other than kudzu wanting to add a new graphic card
(which I ignored),  it came up ok.

I made the same change, but still don't get an X system.

Adding the extra "fi" worked for me.

I have the exact same problem.  Updated this morning.  Tonight I
rebooted and when it tries to switch to graphical mode it seems to
stop booting up.  No HD activitiy.  Will most likely have to
re-install bummer.  You atleast can see your logs.  Maybe you should
bugzilla it.
