environment: Windows 10 1809 / Hyper-v'

Installing 'Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-29-1.2.iso' all ok! 'dnf update' (approx 500packages) all ok! 2nd 'dnf update' (1 pack. 4 updates) all ok i.e. no errors!

.... no problem to work (right after above installs) with fedora 29 UNTIL I 'turn off' (first time !)

and want to 'reboot' (1st time after install!): Starting/connecting to fedora all seems ok. The 'f'-Logo develops.Afterwards the 'f' screen stays!

Found several forum tickets! no help ... 'Ctrl+alt+F2' does NOT bring a 'terminal' thanks for your time and hints, ed

Hit the Escape key, and then what happens?

FWIW, the recovery kernel works for me to boot into single user. Planning to take a look at logs via that sometime today.

I'm running into this same problem, wondering if you were able to find a solution.

I'm seeing same issue.

The timing on the escape key is tricky. If you try a few times, can get it to work. Appears to be hanging on wayland starting, though I haven't tracked down logs yet to figure out exactly where.

An earlier post from October suggested a few fixes, including enabling a 3D adapter. Didn't help me at all.
