Ok, it looks like we got a taste of 10.1 in our 10.0 setups! Gerrit, I'm not sure what you did, but LILO doesn't have a thing to do with this problem. How can a boot loader affect the booting so late in the process? Maybe you are just trying to get more people to use LILO?
Anyway, it seems that Francesco is closer to the bug than you are. It has to do with the file /etc/init.d/earlykdm, installed by the new kdebase3 rpms, build -27. You can edit that file with the changes I'll indicate below to put things right using the -27 build rpms.
Replace this:
if test -z "$DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN"; then /sbin/preload /etc/preload.d/kdm else /usr/bin/ionice -n2 /sbin/preload /etc/preload.d/kdm.auto /usr/bin/ionice -n6 /sbin/preload /etc/preload.d/kde & echo $! > /var/run/preload-session.pid fi
With this:
if test -z "$DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN"; then /sbin/preload < /var/cache/preload/kdm.preload else /usr/bin/ionice -n2 /sbin/preload < /var/cache/preload/kdm.auto.preload /usr/bin/ionice -n6 /sbin/preload < /var/cache/preload/kde.preload & echo $! > /var/run/preload-session.pid fi

Lee, I have no problems with Lilo. The problem with Grub is that it won't save when conf. it. Thats why I use Lilo at this time. Don't no why Grub won't work? I can live whit Lilo as bootloader. By the way, when is the release of 10.1? -- thanks, Gerrit Jan
