Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] Doug. Thank you very much for your help. I looked at the /etc/rcS.d/ . Here is what I got: S35mountall.sh S36mountall-bootclean.sh S36udev-mtab S37mountoverflowtmp S39ifupdown S40networking As I know that S35mountall.sh and s40networking are fine. So something goes wrong when debian hit 36 37 or 39. I have a feeling that the problem is about S39. Anyway, I will reboot the system check what kind log I can get. Also I am reading the /etc/ init.d/rc file too. Maybe I need to modify it. Not quite sure yet. Thanks again. Mond -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Its hanging on the next command. Look in /etc/rcS.d, the directory that contains numbered symlinks to /etc/init.d used for the initial startup. On my i386 system, the script after S35mountall.sh is S36discover and then S36mountall-bootclean.sh. You can edit /etc/default/rcS and change VERBOSE=no to VERBOSE=yes to get more output of some commands the scripts run. Don't modify the initscripts themselves. They should work. If they don't, a whole lot of people would be complaining. Also, check the /var/log/boot file. Some messages go here instead of the console, that is if you have bootlog enabled in /etc/default/bootlogd. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Debian Boot Hangs at Swapfile Swap
Hi all, Hope you enjoyed the thanksgiving. I have a tiny problem about my debian/sid. When I boot my debian, it hangs at activating swapfile swap ...done. Here is what I get from the screen: Mounting local filesystems ... done Activating swapfile swap .. done It just hangs here. Then I press "ctrl-c"(sometimes, twice). The boot continues to set up network. And everything is fine. This is very annoying. I googled a while ending with no clue. I also check the file moutall.sh in /etc/init.d/. I think maybe something wrong with that. But I don't know how to modify it. By the way, the debian is on my laptop and it is the only os. Thanks.
