Hi Kevin,

If parallel booting makes problem, than is some of scripts the culprit. 
It doesn't wait for it's dependencies to be performed. Grouping services will 
not help much as they are not ran sequentially anyway, but cleaning log 
files, booting and after lockup, booting Live CD and looking in logs may help 
to debug issue. 

The other method to isolate script would be add echo command to scripts that 
will give on the screen script name. For instance 
  echo $0 >> /tmp/startup.log
  
That will at least tell what was loaded before lockup and it will be preserved 
after new boot.
