I am not using syslinux but there should be little difference. After loading initial ram disk it should execute init, which is just a shell script. The fact that setting VERBOSE in leaf.cfg changes something on your system makes me think that init is actually called but hangs somehow. I _believe_ init has not changed between 5.2.3 and 5.2.5, so I would first reset the VERBOSE setting as it cannot affect syslinux anyway. Then make very sure you have the correct initmod with your system. cheers Erich |
