+I don't know whether this is to be expected, or whether it has any

+
+I presume this is to be expected at this stage.
+
+&quot;systemctl start prefdm.service&quot;

+
+In case that has to be root, I used &quot;su -&quot; then the same command, but

+

+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>While the new reboot is completing, and while I remember - irqbalance

+
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> If it still fails, then try starting prefdm.service

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Nothing at all happens. It returns to the prompt.
+</I>&gt;<i> This is curious. Does this also occur at runelevel 3? What does

+continue. I can hold on a bit longer. Just give me the next steps :-)
