Fedora 14 not always going to run-level 3?

Fedora 14 not always going to run-level 3?

[Ben Greear]

Has anyone else noticed problems with 39-rc1+ sometimes not booting
into run-level 3?  It seems to just go directly to root console prompt
sometimes.  Seems it was easier to reproduce on -rc1 and early more
buggy kernels, for what that's worth..

Haven't seen this one - F14 always booted into runlevel 3 on my Dell
 Latitude E6400... and since I save all my kernel .config files I can tell
 you which kernels I've tested:

[root@duff src]# ls  .config-2.6.39-rc*

I don't know exactly which version it was, but when I was bisecting some 
unrelated breakage in 2.6.39-rc7, some of the test kernels got stuck in 
some early systemd stage (F15 beta) and failed to make progress.  But 
I've never seen this on new kernels or on 2.6.38.y.
