I tried ^D and noticed that something complaining about /var/run/anacron was not removable and that user anacron did not exist, and the system would then shutdown and reboot. On rebooting, I stopped grub and added -s and single user boot was successful. In single user, I checked what I could and finding nothing, and proceeded with ^D and noticed several things: 1) There was a message to the effect that several important users (root, anacron, and others) was not able to be retrieved from dbus's database. The message appears too fast for me to write it all down exactly. 2) Repeated messages of: "Unknown username "root" in message bus configuration file, for each important users. Is there some way to repair the dbus database? Thanks! DanI forgot to add: 3) The system fails to start dbus, anacron, and a couple of other services but continues on to the text login prompt. Attempts login as root or any normal user will fail. Dan
Um... interesting.... When I added selinix=0 to the grub command line for the kernel, I was able to get my qui and logins to work.... seems there is something going on with SELinux and dbus.... Can someone help me fix this issue? Should I remove and reinstall SELinux/DBUS? I will wait until I get advice here before attempting this step....
