Can I ask how I disable the ndiwsrapper from being loaded at boot time? I dont know but I think this might be the reason. I can boot in single user mode and when I issue a init 2 my system hangs when it gets to the services. I tried to disable the services but it still hangs. I have no idea what can be the cause of this but the only change I made was the introuction of the correct wireless driver to ndiswrapper. Maybe if I can disable it I can get back to boot. What is odd is if i boot in single user mode I can load the ndis driver and use it i/o problems. I even removed exim4 from my system and it still doesnt work.
I also tried the other suggestion to let it hanged for a while. I waited for 5 minutes and nothing. I also tried to boot it many times w/o hope. Have any suggestions?
