Yes, I agree. Can you still scroll the console back (using shift-PgUp)?
If you can it is not completely hung. You can also try Ctrl-C to try to 
break the hanging process.

Using the rescue mode I referred to, enable bootlogd in /etc/default.
Then reboot, then go into rescue mode again. Then the directory
/target/var/log should have files boot, kern.log and syslog.
Before you send these, make sure you delete everyting that is not relevant 
for the last boot from the last two files.
