    Christian,

    Is this a new install and you have never been able to boot? Or did
    everything boot normal and the boot process begin to fail recently?

    If this is a new install and you are having problems, then you may have
    a problem with not enough of a swap space or RAM to
    load the bootup image. If, on the other hand, this just started, you may
    need to reinstall your kernel. If you have a way to telnet into the
    affected workstation, try that and see if you can access important data.

    Good luck,

    Joe
