Termination of these four processes takes minutes to complete. Whereas in the past it

I understand. On my system (Soyo board with a KT-600 chipset) rebooting
doesn't work. I've tried acpi=off apm=off and such to no avail. I'd
like to have that work properly as well.
I tried using system-config-securitylevel to turn off the firewall. This had no effect on
the shutdown time. Found that running the utility re-enabled SELinux (already in
bugzilla?) and that I need to "disable" SELinux before exiting the utility.
Also disabling SELinux via system-config-securitylevel has not effect. On rebooting
SELinux is still active. Need to add "selinux=0" to boot parameters in grub.
I examined /etc/rc.d/init.d/network. The script on my FC2T3 system still has a reference
to /etc/modules.conf. I think it should now reference modprobe.conf. Also the script
differs from the one on my FC1 system as follows:
114d113
< unset DEVICE TYPE SLAVE BRIDGE
119d117
< unset DEVICE TYPE SLAVE BRIDGE
125d122
< unset DEVICE TYPE SLAVE BRIDGE
130d126
< unset DEVICE TYPE SLAVE BRIDGE
133d128
< unset DEVICE TYPE SLAVE BRIDGE
214d208
< unset DEVICE TYPE BRIDGE
219d212
< unset DEVICE TYPE BRIDGE
224d216
< unset DEVICE TYPE BRIDGE
227d218
< unset DEVICE TYPE BRIDGE
Don't know what it all means. Could be just the differencs in the two motherboards.
For all I know anaconda may not have even updated /etc/rc.d/init.d/network. The file has
a Jan 28 date.
