This file describes the configuration that was used to compile the kernel.

Yes, please try to be more precise about what happens before the boot process hangs. Did you try pressing Ctrl-c or Ctrl-d to abort the currenlty running init script? Did you try to disable the script you suspect to be the culprit? Do you have entries in your syslog from failed boot attempts? Did you enable the boot log (etc/default/bootlogd)?
