  When I boot my system it hangs at the following point (the system is
  an HP Omnibook 5700CTX with RedHat 6.0 installed w/o additioinal
  patches):

     Checking root file system 
     /dev/hda6 has reached maximal mount count, checked forced

Linux automatically runs a thorough fsck when a partition has been mounted
some number of times. You shouldn't be concerned by it, since it is not
really hung just busy. When I get this I go for a cup of coffee since one of
my partitions is very large and takes a long time.

Enjoy your coffee :-)

Tim
