Don't know. Our Natty installations end with only a blinking cursor in the upper left corner. So it's seems to be hanging, but really it isn't. Just switch to a VTY (ALT-F1). Maybe this is your problem also? If not, try to get some more information from the console (ALT-all-of-them to find some hints..) Goodluck! -- Grtz, Jörgen Maas
