[ale] Kernel problem

[Dow Hurst]

You could try enabling verbose mode on the daemons that are started. 
You could put a sync at the end of each init script.  And you could not
load modules automatically but do it by hand to see if a particular
module is fouling up your boot.  At least that would be a start.
