[K12OSN] boot errors

Hello all:

I thought I was finished setting up a new system but bad luck strikes again.

I noticed some error messages when the kids logon to the system. They are:

Power Manager
This Service cannot start until you start the dbus system service.
It is strongly recommended that you reboot your computer after starting 
messagebus.


I go to Services and it shows messagebus as not running. I try to start it but 
fails.
I reboot the system and notice many warnings and two services that fail to 
start: Avahi and the one right below it.

I'm using K12LTSP 5.0

Here is all of the message log:

-----------------
Is it hopeless? Do I need to reload and start from scratch? It may be faster 
but I dunno.

The last thing we were doing was adding users via webmin and changing 
passwords also via webmin.
