As the title says, I can boot into X11. But when I want to boot to the commandline (runlevel 3) the bootproces stops after loading the daemons from rc.conf.
Also, when I log out from X/OpenBox (and expect to enter runlevel 3), I get into the same situation as when I try to boot into runlevel 3 directly.
My inittab:
#
# /etc/inittab
#
# Runlevels:
# 0 Halt
# 1(S) Single-user
# 2 Not used
# 3 Multi-user
# 4 Not used
# 5 X11
# 6 Reboot
## Only one of the following two lines can be uncommented!
# Boot to console
#id:3:initdefault:
# Boot to X11

rc::sysinit:/etc/rc.sysinit
rs:S1:wait:/etc/rc.single

Can you run ps -ef when you are in runlevel 5 and see if the agetty processes are running?
Good ideas do not need lots of lies told about them in order to gain public acceptance.

Looks like it is running.
Edit: after a reboot it shows this:

You have not updated your inittab, this may be the problem.
