First it starts as usual, but freezes after "switching to runlevel 5", when initializing the random number generator and the network. I pasted the output of a good and a bad boot.msg below. My last actions, before I noticed it doesn't reboot anymore, were: - use the cellphone to access internet - create a new user because of OpenOffice store failure - clear tmp directory in single user mode (because of OpenOffice store failure - was this stupid?) - new (workstation) installation of OpenOffice Nayone around who can give me a clou where to look next?
