No, it is not (directly) related to Aurora. I just had one more case, what
I did after was:
- boot in failsafe mode, choose "Maintenance" and remove
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf
- try to boot - now the last message was 'Building Window manager
sessions" and then boot hung. I presume, it hung in call to kudzu in
rc.sysinit
- I've tried to boot into fb without Aurora and no fb - in all cases boot
hung in init.d/kudzu
- I've tried to boot failsafe, single user and called kudzu manually - it
still hung! Unfortunately, when I tried it second time under strace it
completed.
I am about to disable kudzu alltogether. I never understood what it is
good for anyway.
BTW why there are two calls - one in rc.sysinit and the other in
init.d/kudzu? Sorta redundant?
