This week I'm focusing on issue that make it hard to deploy SoaS. One of these is stick failures. I believe there is more then one cause to stick failures so I'm going to try to attack them one a time, we don't have to get it to 0 but right now its a major disruption, almost every class someone has a broken stick. The most common sort of failure mode seems to be that the stick gets stuck at the Fedora Login Screen. Any ideas what is happening? 1. Why do we go there at all during reboot? 2. Sometimes it goes there without liveuser filled in, then its impossible to continue. 3. Sometimes if has liveuser but when you press return it takes you back to the login screen. I wonder if we just have a bug somewhere and its not the sticks fault at all? -- Caroline Meeks Solution Grove Caroline@SolutionGrove.com 617-500-3488 - Office 505-213-3268 - Fax
