Nothing, it just starts the boot process normally, and says "remounting root
filesystem read-write" the hard drive makes noise for a second and then the
computer hangs. I can't (or don't know of anything) do to. Anything I type
is displayed on the screen, but I don't know how to get out of it from
there. 

When I boot with the rescue disk chroot works fine, for whatever that is
worth.


Thanks for your help,
