Hi,
I installed Arch two weeks ago. Unfortunately it hangs at shutdown/reboot. It stopps succesfully the network-daemon and stops at this point. Keyboard and Mouse are responding but I'm unable to log in via a different console.
The daemon that should be stopped after network is syslog-ng.
My daemons:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !hotplug !pcmcia network nscd portmap fam nfslock netfs ypbind autofs crond gdm)
I was able to reboot the system succesfully by disabling syslog-ng in the rc.conf and commenting out following lines of the rc.shutdown:
#!/bin/bash
#
# /etc/rc.shutdown
#
. /etc/rc.conf
. /etc/rc.d/functions
# avoid staircase effect
/bin/stty onlcr
echo " "
printhl "Initiating Shutdown..."
echo " "
if [ -x /etc/rc.local.shutdown ]; then
/etc/rc.local.shutdown
fi
if [ "$PREVLEVEL" = "3" -o "$PREVLEVEL" = "5" ]; then
# Shutdown daemons
let i=${#DAEMONS[@]}
while [[ i -ge 0 ]]; do
if [[ `echo ${DAEMONS[$i]} | grep '^[^!]' | wc -l` -eq 1 ]]; then
/etc/rc.d/${DAEMONS[$i]#@} stop
fi
let i=i-1
done
# find any leftover daemons and shut them down
# these lines cause my system to stop the shutdown
#if [ -d /var/run/daemons ]; then
# for daemon in `ls /var/run/daemons`; do
# /etc/rc.d/$daemon stop
# done
#fi
fi
# Terminate all processes
stat_busy "Sending SIGTERM To Processes"
/sbin/killall5 -15 &> /dev/null
/bin/sleep 5
stat_done
. . .
I have absolutely no idea why my system is acting this way.
[UPDATE]
I tried using syslogd instead of syslog-ng but there's still the same problem. Why does my system dislike a system-logger this much?

before we could run we were dancing.

I have an almost identical problem to this one. Which would be the most pertinent system, and log files one would need to help me trouble shoot this?
