Title: Redhat linux 9 is stucking after boot . no gui
Post by: taraj on August 12, 2004, 02:03:03 PM

Well..
my linux was running fine
but one day when i boot it booted normally but instead of starting X it stucked.. after sometimes it splashed a messages for some times then again blank screen then again that message .. that was some thing about "locked" but i was not able to remember as it was big one.

I was last running xmms, few console, KDE, and firefox and evolution. I shut it down by just giving "init 0" .

So any remedy ?

btw I really don't linux when i get stucked like this.. there is nothing like boot to safe mod like we have  in windows so that you do some repair etc..  damn..

BTW plz help..
