booting up, I reach the end of the init sequence and there's a delay

usual "This is .." and the login prompt.
The first thing I would do is have a look at /etc/conf.d/local.start.
The "Starting local" text comes from /etc/init.d/local which executes
any startup scripts in /etc/conf.d/local.start.

Keith,
Thanks for the reply!
I see that I managed above to report the contents (or the lack thereof) in
/etc/conf.d/local.start as /etc/conf.d/start.local. Sorry about that little
reporting error. In truth, there are no entries in my
/etc/conf.d/local.start, just the standard, commented-out boilerplate which
leaves me without ideas of anykind as to a solution. There's literally
nothing blocking the way to the login that I'm aware of. Talk about
flummoxed.

Anything in dmesg? I know one way to get past it ( without solving
the bug, which is the real issue here ) is to just remove the local
script from running, since it's empty. It doesn't have to be run.
However, also check /var/log/message and anywhere else you might have
some juicy logs.
