Re: [Cooker] system freeze during boot at loading compose keys
I had the same problem exactly. I fixed it by booting off the cd in rescue CD mode and going into the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory and moving the keytable program to the root user home directory and then when it boots it doesn't hang but i imagine the problem with keytable still exists.

I've got the same problem now. It seems to be

to devfs=nomount it doesn't hang. This is with
kernel 2.4.17-2mdk
which
worked very well before updateding devfsd to

What pam version? There was a bug in shared library

{pts/2}% rpm -q devfsd
devfsd-1.3.21-1mdk
What was the change in -2mdk? IIRC agpgart was added; may it be that
loadkeys triggers some weird module loading.
Please, remove everything from /lib/dev-state (but not the directory
itself) and reboot. Does it help?
Else I attach my devfsd.conf from -1mdk; does it work with it?
Else I really do not know because it works on another system with -2mdk
as well; the please when it hangs do
Alt-SysRq-tusb
and then in /var/log/messages you should have stack trace of running
processes. May be it gives some hint.
