I finished the upgrade, but when the machine tries to boot 
snv122, it hangs on the splash screen  (where the slider 
moves across the blue screen).

This is strange, as I have an identical machine at home 
running snv122.  The only difference is that the machine 
that's hanging has 4GB of memory and a 500GB disk, whereas 
the home machine that works fine has 2GB memory and 320GB disk.

Any ideas?
