I'm ~x86 on a dell laptop. 

I'm having some fun this morning. Everything was working this morning, but I 
shut down the system for my daily commute and now it won't boot. I seem to 
remember a few gnome emerges last night, but everything emerged cleanly and ran 
etc-update.

I have some failing init scripts such as xfs (ie, X Font Server) and net.eth0.  
I did a 'rc-update del' on these and xdm, so that I'd have a starting point 
from which to work from. 

However, it sill won't give me a bash shell. It literally hangs after starting 
the last script. 

Does anybody know which rock to turn over to find out why this is the case?

PS- I can boot off the Gentoo Live CD. I did a new 'emerge sync', but I can't 
find anything that would fix this. I also checked bugs.gentoo.com, but 
nada. I'm running fsck on all my file partitions to see if there is an 
error.
