Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John

I find that fstab is also often a problem. If it's waiting for /dev/sdb1
to show up, or a specific UUID. Maybe comment out anything not required
for boot. Also, if you're at the console, comment out your whole
/etc/network/interfaces and see if that helps. Ubuntu often waits on block
devices and network, so it could be either of those.

HI guys,
I've got a version of Ubuntu 13.10 in my Virtualbox OSE virtual
computer. It hangs very early in the boot. GRUB runs and the boot starts.
In /var/log/boot.log, I see the same messages as I see on the screen. I
have to press ESC to see the text while the computer boots. There are
perhaps 3 or 4 "Starting <service>....OK" messages, and that is all. I
never get a chance to log in.
The problem I have is that I don't know in which order the boot scripts
are supposed to run. With the "old" initscripts, one would see
Snn<script> or Knn<script> and the "nn" would be the number representing
the order in which the scripts are "S"tarted or "K"illed. That isn't
the case here.
I've found the boot scripts in /etc/init/*.conf so I can match boot
messages to scripts.
However, I'm unable to determine which script got stuck since I don't
know the order of execution. My version of 13.10 is customized, not
stock, so I can't compare to a known good.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Andy
