Do the following: - boot the system with -b added on the LILO command line (for example, boot: linux -b) - Now in maintenance mode, mount the root file system r/w: # mount -n -o remount,rw / - Edit /etc/inittab - look for the line with /etc/init.d/boot in it - Replace that with: # Boot-time system configuration/initialization script. si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS - save the file - umount and reboot: # mount -n -oremount,ro / # reboot -f Something hosed your /etc/inittab during the upgrade, but I have no idea why. I think you had a buggy version of sysvinit installed by accident before..
