Sam, I don't see anything in the journal or in the output of "smartctl -a /dev/sda3".
Would you like to see the output of the above command? I have done several group installs on the fresh VM... and tested blkid after each. No problems found... There are a few "George" changes but they're minor. I can start doing them and testing after each if that sounds like a good idea. Regards, George... ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2020 15:53:20 -0800 From: Samuel Sieb <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Problems with blkid hanging.

That is a very strange call to get stuck on. Are there any messages in the journal? Check the SMART status of your hard drive. ------------------------------ Subject: Digest Footer _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] ------------------------------ End of test Digest, Vol 192, Issue 104 ************************************** _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
