Hi Sanvir,
Those lines mentioned above are there, the terminal logins appear after
i have logged in through the gdm. It appears that the system is waiting
for the gdm to finish its login process and then load the rest of the
system. I also spotted these in the /etc/inittab (dunno if these are of
consequence ?) :
- ---------------------------------
# System initialization.
si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit

l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0
l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1
l2:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 2
l3:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 3
l4:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 4
l5:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 5
l6:6:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 6
- -------------------------------

thanks ,
