[Voyage-linux] reboot sometimes stops in the middle

Hi Robbert

Try do insert debug output in
   /etc/init.d/udev
in the start) section
and in
   /etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh
in the do_start section
The message in the bad case:
   kill: Could not kill pid '1601': No such process
if very rare and the udev messages are missing like ...
   Starting the hotplug events dispatcher: udevd.

Question: In the bad case can you login?
Is the proc and dev filesystem mounted?
I thinks there is in either of this 2 a problem...

Have you modified any startscript or do you have a bad mount point in 
/etc/fstab?
The following messages are a little bit strange ...

Mounting local filesystems...mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or 
/mnt/usb busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is mounted on /mnt/disk

It seens that you mount the root filesystem also to /mnt/disk

Only some ideas to go on ...

Greetings

Beat
