I have mangaged to install version 6.0 and have had a bit of a
play, but not before re-installing because the boot had been
sooooo slow
The boot sequence all goes smoothly...
until it gets to the following line:
Configuring syscons: keymap blanktime screensaver.
and then stops! I have timed it - it stops for between 4 and 5
minutes every time.
Does your screen goes blank just after the above message? If so,
press [Enter] key, you should see the boot being continued, and
"login:" waiting for input at the end.
PS I am conscious that I don't really know the etiquette around
here too well (apart from not mentioning the logo!) - I don't want
to clutter the list with messages of thanks when help is given,
but at the same time I don't want to seem ungrateful - which is
right?
I think everybody appreciates the message when OP tells when/if the
problem is solved.
IMO, there is really no need to generate a message for each person;
a combined (if applicable) public thank you note should be enough.
Thanking people who have helped you give them the incentive to keep
on helping you & others.
