How to debug a boot problem?
Hi!
I have debian testing on a SIS741 Athlon XP system,
Graphics is ATI 9250 (RV280) in case that gives a hint to somebody.
Kernel 2.6.30 runs fine.
Kernel 2.6.32 reaches
done.
Setting parameters of disc: (none)
Checking root file system...fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
Ursula-root: clean, ../.. files, ../.. blocks (I didn't write down the exact numbers)
done.
and stops.
How do I find out, why boot stops here? Where does it stop?
How can I find out what the next step which hangs the system is?
Could the new dependency based boot be the culprit?
Or the kernel based mode setting?
As far as I remember both were new in this kernel?
What do you suggest to try next?
With best regards
Hartmut
