Hi<br><br>Around 8 to 10 months I&#39;ve left a server without updates, and now, after also building a new kernel, emerging new gcc, glibc, re-emerging baselayout, sysvinit and all packages that contains something in /etc/init.d/ , the boot process hangs after a few of the scripts (normally at keymaps or consolefont) returns their &quot;ok&quot; message.<br>
<br>If I use the option to key in an &quot;i&quot; for interactive boot and skip all remaining services, I get a login prompt on TTY1 through TTY6 as expected, and if I issue every script on the boot and default rc-levels, everything works fine (well, one or two of them complain about something specific, but the important thing is that it doesn&#39;t hang at all).<br>
<br>Any ideas? The server is up and running (apache, ssh, samba, svn, mysql, ftp, nfs, distcc, etc.) so I&#39;m not in a hurry.<br><br>I&#39;m thinking on unmerging sysvinit and baselayout just to make sure there is no garbage left, then re-emerging them.<br>
