Could you please file a ticket with the output of shell.log? I'll take a look (having been the last one to touch those bits).

[Server-devel] XS 0.7 CentOS boot hang
Hi, Apologies if this has been covered before. I noticed that sometimes an XS 0.7 installation will hang in the boot screen (the advancing white shaded bar bottom of screen). I have not been able to fix this other than by reinstalling. I read somewhere there is a bug involving X11 and the fix is to boot in single user mode and delete xorg.conf. But tried that and it still hung but with scrolling boot text on the screen.

Re: [Server-devel] XS 0.7 CentOS boot hang
Given the XS-0.7 does not run X Windows by default, this likely is not the problem. You can try disabling the pseudo-graphical progress bar to get more information. On a system that hangs, choose to edit the default boot option before the countdown timer finishes. Delete the rhgb (Red Hat Graphical Boot) and quiet parameters, and then tell Grub to let the system boot to see if the hang point becomes obvious.

I've seen similar on other installs, it turned out to be Plymouth, and nothing to do with X. Vague memory; quiet, or nosplash fixed. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Re: [Server-devel] XS 0.7 CentOS boot hang
IMHO it might be worth looking at udoo - Linux machine made made up of arduino + 4 raspberry pis. I've signed up with them via rockstarter So I'll tell u guys about it. Also signed up for wig wag and portable 3d printer (kinda essential for onsight repairs - works wonders) that and much more Serius look into IP 6 and wimax.
