I have tried some additional changes that have not made a difference.
I disabled selinux - that made no difference
I stopped and disabled firewalld - that made no difference.
I can boot this machine after I turn it off and then back on, but when I
try to do a shutdown now -r, the system hangs right after picking the OS
that is desired "CentOS Linux..........".
After the machine is turned off the boot process occurs normally after
this choice and I get two penguins in the upper left hand corner, and
the boot proceeds. When I do a shutdown now -r, I do not get to the
penguins and the machine hangs forever until I either unplug it or press
the power button for 5 seconds.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Greg
