I've had that happen often when I failed to boot MacOS with extensions
off, and also when I tried to boot Linux from an external scsi drive.
You can enable some of the options in Penguin to record its progress
in disk files, and then go back to see how far it really got after the
attempt.
Penguin 19, in Debian 3.0, has some improvements; I don't know
if that would help but it's always worth a shot.
