I was right the first time: it was something I'd done - a typo in /boot/loader/ |

Now, though, the system gets as far as populating /dev and hangs. So, back to |
| 19 |
SysRescCD and check that devfs is selected, and it is. I'll go through the |
| 20 |
kernel config yet again and see what I may have missed. |
