Server will not boot stuck after sarting HAL deamon (OK) .. no other error messages. Thanks!

[john.bergeski at alpsautomotive.com]

Sorry about the message in the subject line, won't happen again.

When I am at the grub menu I have the following line.

Kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.ELsmp ro root=/dev/Volgroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet 3

I deleted the rhgb quiet 3 so it looks like the following:

Kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.ELsmp ro root=/dev/Volgroup00/LogVol00


I hit "b" to boot the system but I get the following error:

Booting command-list

Error 27: Unrecognised command

Thanks for your help!

Please don't put your whole message in the subject line, John.

Are you launching anything from, say, /etc/rc.d/rc.local that doesn't
let go of the console?  If so, then that's what's happening.

You might also try to boot the system in run level 3 (don't let it go
to the GUI) and see if it's an X problem.  To do that, at the grub
menu, hit "E" to edit the boot entry, scroll down to the "kernel" line,
hit "E" again, go to the end of the line and add " 3" to it (note: you
must include the space before the "3").  It should look sorta like:

    kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet 3

Then hit the ENTER key and then "B" to boot it.

The system should come up to the text login.  If it does, then you
have an X configuration issue and you should, as the root user, rerun
"system-config-display" and make sure X is configured correctly.
