I was in the process of working out problems with a friend of mine
who had trouble with her config files and I wanted to boot into "safe
mode" to walk her through "drakconf".
When I tried to boot into safe mode it stopped at "Failed to issue
method call: Transaction is destructive". My box still boots fine
into regular mode but won't in safe mode. What is curious also, is
that I have another box that I am repairing for someone and it does
the same thing, it won't boot into safe mode. However, I tried it on
laptop and it does boot into safe mode. Weird.
Anyway, any ideas on how I could get safe mode to work properly
again? I took a camera shot of the monitor and the output on the last
page of booting up into safe mode where it died[1].
NOTE: all systems are running Mageia2
Thanks for any help.

It looks as though you aren't the only one:
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=266172 and the bug
report quoted there may be of some help. Note that Fedora uses lvm by
default. There are other reports in Google as well.
HTH,
Doug.
Thanks for the note.
This is really not what I am experiencing, although perhaps having
shared folders may be the cause of the problem. I don't imagine that if
my system were not to be able to boot in normal mode that I would have
the tools on me to fix the problem as I would be unable to boot into any
safe mode.
Our Mageia2 systems should be able to boot, at the very least, into safe
mode, regardless of any prior configurations. I have 2 boxes where
booting in safe mode is not possible.
Cheers,
Marc
