syslog shouldn't hang unless you've got it set to try to log to another
box. You answered to Joel that this only happens on the first reboot and
not on consecutive reboots, so I presume that isn't the prob.
OTOH, there was a security update for sysklogd earlier this week. You
might want to grab that.
Add "deb
http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib
non-free" to your /etc/apt/sources.list. Then go grab the security
fixes. There are a few at this point. You shouldn't need the one for
netscape since you're running a firewall :).
Also, looks at the debian buglist for sysklogd. Don't know if storm has
something similar.
http://cgi.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=sysklogd&archive=no
BTW, I know syslogd is in sysklogd due to the security update, but
normally one would do the following.
sh-2.01$ dpkg -S `type -p syslogd`
sysklogd: /sbin/syslogd
