OK -- have you tried booting with init=/bin/sh? I'm betting you still won't be able to type, but it might be worth a try. You could also try booting a live CD and using it to examine the system logs for clues about what's happening. Here's another thought: have you been loading the USB/network modules from /etc/modules or from udev/hotplug? Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
