I had thought that it might be a grub.conf problem, but it looks normal to me and hasn't been changed (by me) since the last kernel upgrade (2.4.18-14) on Dec 23.

Once the routine system startup checks and initializations are performed, the screen shows "GRUB", as it normally does before presenting the GRUB GUI, but freezes at that point. -- Best regards, Brian Curtis -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
