Today I needed to power off one of my F19 systems. So I logged out and selected shutdown from the top right button. Instead of powering off as I expected, and was told it was going to do from the message that appeared on the screen, much to my amazement it didn't. Instead it restarted and went back to the login screen. This happened again when I tried it. So in desperation I hit the power switch. Well now the system wont boot. Instead it always goes to emergency mode.
I booted off a F19 DVD, went into troubleshooting and ran fsck on all the file systems. They all came back clean - no errors, and yet I can't get it to boot. I have hit the power switch to power off a system in the past because it was so hung up I couldn't do anything else. Every time the system has recovered, but not this time. Anybody know what I need to do to get back to a working system? This particular system is a Dell Inspiron 15 laptop. Any assistance is appreciated. Paolo
