new install hangs on boot at NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0

slydini

It hangs at NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.

No errors just hangs there. What is going on here?

have you activated in your kernel unix domain socket and smp? You may have to (un)compile them...

Yes they are both compiled in. I'll try recompiling without those in there.

Wait a minute the help for Unix domain sockets say's: Say Y unless you know what you are doing.

I will however try it without SMP compiled in.

Yes, it's probably SMP. That's the same thing that happened to me.. SMP = N and BINGO!

Still waiting for my slow ass pentium 200Mhz with only 48MB of ram to finish the compile. I'll let ya know in a minute.

Alrighty then, it now boots up to the login prompt

but not without errors.

1. Failed to load pcnet32 (even though it failed to load I can still ping myself and ifconfig works fine

).

2. Starting syslogd, klogd...
start-stop-daemon: stat /usr/sbin/sylogd: No such file or directory
start-stop-daemon: stat /usr/sbin/klogd: No such file or directory
* Failed to start syslogd, klogd !!
*ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
* "vcron" was not started
*Starting local... OK

Any ideas?

I almost forgot to let you know that I previously made a mistake and emerged both syslogd first then metalog after

So I tried to unmerge metalog but I guess it didn't completely unmerge. How do I get rid of metalog only?

Well I figured out the pcnet32 problem, it was already compiled in the kernel.
