well, your crystal ball was pretty close ;)
Of the three startup scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/, apache.sh was the
culprit... as soon as I moved it out of the dir, then the reboot came up
to the login prompt.
However, once I moved it back in, and rebooted, (edited nothing), it comes
up golded as well.
Did you happen to use your psyonics to manipulate a few bits around my
hdd?
