What I really should have asked is:  Do you see the "[ ok ]" after
"Starting local...", or does the pause happen before that appears?

If the "[ ok ]" appears quickly, then (stating the obvious) something
after /etc/init.d/local is causing the pause.  It might be a problem
with /sbin/agetty or /bin/login.
    

The [ok] appears right away with "Starting local ... ". Looks to you like
something in /sbin/agetty or /bin/login then?

  
Can you please send the contents of /etc/inittab and /etc/pam.d/login?
    

I'll be sending you the contents of these files in a reply to this reply
right away, Daniel. Please don't ask me why I'm doing it this way. :-)

Here are the files, Daniel, albeit in an unorthodox way. Your indulgence is appreciated. :-)
