Hi;
I have Suse 8.0 pro , last 2 weeks i can't boot. After kernel loaded and hardisks detected when Suse want to detect firewall (initial) [original sentence is: Starting personal-firewall (initial) ] Suse freezes and nothing happen. I can type console but boot sequence doesn't continue. How can I rescue system ? I think initial firewall is iptables.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I had something like this happen to me just the other day. I'd got into something with alsa, and did a make etc, and it changed some things in modules.conf that I didn't realize it had done. When I rebooted, the main problem was something to do with the firewall, but it also showed two lines in modules.conf that couldn't be found or initialized. Look at the boot messages, and see if it's telling you about any problems in modules.conf. I did an mcedit of modules.conf, commented out the two lines it had told me about, rebooted, and voila! my system came back up, firewall and all. Nothing in the boot messages said *anything* was wrong with the firewall, other than at the end. I hope this gives you an idea of where to maybe look.
