Hang up on Second reboot of Red Hat 7.1

[Michael J. Schweppe]

Hi:

After installation the computer re booted fine.  After checking things
out and setting up eth0 and eth1 I re booted.  During the start up of
starting this and that when I got to "Starting Sendmail..." the
computer just hangs with the blinking curser.  I set security at
Medium and did nothing with Sendmail.  I re booted again and the same
problem occurred again.

My experience is just above novice in the clueless range :-)

Short of starting over and reinstalling, which I really would like to
avoid, what can I do?  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Mike
