I guess I don't understand. The start up process has stopped, systemd says something about 'waiting for plymouth graphical boot screen' to end and then stops. X is not running at this point. I can press ALT+CTRL+F2 to open another terminal session and log in to look at /var/log/messages, /var/log/slim.log, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I don't know if this helps, but I tried it again a few minutes ago and saw this in /var/log/messages: Aug 31 13:17:24 badboy systemd[1]: prefdm.service holdoff time over, scheduling restart.
