Server starts hangs during startup

[asaravan]

Hi,

I have installed fedora core 6 and able to make it run quite good.


i decided to change network name and edited /etc/hosts file to add this

:: localhost.localdomain localhost
#i added following line
myipaddr myname

upon restart after activating udev and just before getting login window, it hangs
waiting several hours and nothing happens.
hit ctl-alt-f1 and no use

i couldn't start server in safe mode too (ubuntu offers recovery mode at boot menu)

i would like to know how to fix it.. atleast if am able to start in no-gui mode i can go and revert my edits.. (i don't want to reinstall again, as i put lot of software and setup already,
including tweaking network to make it work)

please help.

thanks
AK
