Hmmm....
Admittedly, I don't reboot this system often, so maybe I'm
misremembering when the problem crept in.
Could it be the NFS mount that it is hanging on, and unmounting/var is
just that last thing showing on the screen?
I think I'll try manually unmounting that before rebooting the next time
I need to(need to update the kernel soon anyway)...
I do know the last few times this has happened, the NFS mount was
'unavailable' (the device had powered down without first unmounting it
from the server)...
I hope that is all it is...
Thanks Alan
