Si_ Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Hi, We have a centos server running in vmware. The server booted up fine, I gave it an IP address and rebooted, and now the server hangs about 7/8ths the way through, the last item to load is: Starting atd [ ok ] Any idea what I can do to get it to load? This happens every time, so rebooting etc doesn't help. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lechio Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 The atd service loads OK. The next service doesn't. What you can do is to boot it in recovery mode, and disable the next service. This can also be done by using a live CD, like knoppix. Put the live CD in, at the vmware "BIOS" choose to boot it from CD, boot with knoppix. Go to /<partition mountpoint>/etc/rc<X1>.d and disable the next service that starts after atd. The atd service should be identified with a number similar to: "S89atd", disable the service that loads after atd. 1. replace with the default init number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
