Hello,

After an update, I have been having trouble at boot time. The boot process stops at this stage (this is taken from my rc.log)
Code:
 rc sysinit logging started at Thu Apr 26 11:09:50 2012


   OpenRC 0.9.9.3 is starting up Gentoo Linux (x86_64)

Press I to enter interactive boot mode

 * /proc is already mounted, skipping
 * /run is already mounted, skipping
 * checkpath: correcting mode
 * /run/lock: correcting owner


I am using Plymouth which needs an initramfs image (generated by Dracut), I believe that's why those filesystems are already mounted. I have to press a key for the booting process to continue. The boot process continues and it shows repeatedly the warning message: "* read: Interrupted system call ". Here is the rest of the rc.log:

After that, everything goes fine. What is the problem here? This is not the first time that something like this has happened. Some months back I had the same problem, but can't remember how It went away... I believe I uninstalled Plymouth and did emerge world.

BTW, I have this error on the shutdown log:
Code:

Same problem.
However, single key press is not enough, as hang may happen at any time later, even causing some services to not boot.

FIXED: somehow rc_interactive appeared to be enabled (i don't remember, when it did), disabling it fixes problem.
