It's definitely easier to track down consistent issues.

Actually in my situation it always hangs when starting except the few times I 
tested with the 7.4.6 init script. I'll do more confirmations as well as 
checking the SELinux context on Monday.

by the way, this is very good news, something consistant like this is much
easier to track down than "only the first time"

Question, if you run the init script manually as root does it still hang?

we have three startup scenarios

1. start through the init process (fails)

2. start manually as root (succeeds)

3. start with the init script as root (??)

if 3 succeeds, then the problem is something in the init environment (like
SELinux tags), if it fails, then it's something in the init script itself.
