Hello Peter,

Here is a great boot debugging resource that may help [1] 
It's an Arch doc, but there is plenty of information therein
that is generic in nature. Also there is the gentoo crash dump
doc that may help [2], but it is for system that are already running;
included in case you get that far and still have problems.
