I am running unstable gentoo and baselayout2, however when I shutdown my system with something like shutdown -r now -- it gets into a state where it says init: no more processes in this run level, but it never will restart or shutdown if I use -h. How in the heck do I even debug such a thing or fix? Thanks in advance for any good ideas. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it?
