Hi, -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andreas Davour Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 20:38 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mysterious freeze while booting
I have this odd behaviour from both my 5.2 and my 5.3 installations. GENERIC or my own. When booting the console displays the usual messages like below: 1> Starting local daemons:. 2> Updating motd. 3> Configuring syscons: keymap blanktime. 4> Initial i386 initialization:. 5> Additional ABI support: linux. 6> Starting cron. What is strange is that after line 3 the computer suddenly stops for a long time, almost a minute, doing (as far as I know) nothing! Add your system hostname to /etc/hosts. Alternatively ensure that DNS resolves properly on your box. If you just want to skip the whole thing, then press Ctrl+C when the box hangs up.... or seems to hang up. Regards S.
