- Overview Description -
I installed dbus/hal/ivman and added them to default runlevel. The next time I rebooted, the machine froze just at when hdparm was starting.

As I tried several things, it seems like to make it freeze, I only needed dbus/hald and hdparm to be on the default runlevel. If I take hald or hdparm off from default runlevel, it will not freeze.

Also, taking dbus/hald/ivman off from default runlevel, and having hdparm on default runlevel, but load dbus/hald/ivman after the system boots, it will not freeze, like putting those 3 in the /etc/conf.d/local.start to load up.

-Steps to Reproduce-
On an x86 box with 2005.1 Gentoo with 2.6.13 kernel,

1. emerge dbus hal ivman
2. add those 3 to default runlevel (only dbus and hald is needed for it to happen)
3. reboot

-Actual Results-
Froze the machine completely just when hdparm started. 

-Expected Results-
Does not freeze.

-Additional Information-

The reason I'm masking 2.6.14 kernel is it seems like mpd stops working with 2.6.14 kernel, maybe I write bug report on this as well.

The only thing that even said anything about dbus/hal/ivman in system log is,
[hald] Timed out waiting for hotplug event 438. Rebasing to 440
