Thanks for the debugging instructions. I appended init=/bin/bash to the boot line I then used the following commands: openvt -s bash cd /etc/rcS.d ./S01glibc start etc "./S03udev start" hangs and produces the same "last" message as before the hang during normal boot. That message is "input: HDA Intel HP out at Ext Front jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input9" So it does seem the problem is triggered by the udev start script. Any suggestions for how to narrow down the problem would be appreciated. Best regards, Boris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
