>Environment:
Machine does not boot. The last boot message (at which the machine apparently hangs) is "Starting avahi-daemon." 
>Description:
The machine is a Dell 600m, 512M, 160GB hard disk. It has Ubuntu
and FreeBSD as a dual boot. I installed FreeBSD 7.0 and everything
was fine. I added the Gnome2 package and the first few times
everything was fine. I was trying to set up the wireless card and
got it working. The first time this bug happened, the message was
"$dbus_enable is not set correctly" followed by "$polkitd_enable
is not set correctly". I included the 3 lines in /etc/rc.conf:
polkitd_enable="YES", dbus_enable="YES" and hald_enable="YES". It
booted fine a few times after that. Throughout, I have been fiddling
with my network configuration in /etc/rc.conf, /etc/hosts and
/etc/nsswitch.conf.

Here are the files that I was playing with:

My /etc/hosts file reads:
127.0.0.1  localhost localhost.my.domain laptop2
192.168.2.4 laptop2 laptop2.my.domain

My /etc/rc.conf files reads:
defaultrouter="192.168.2.1"
hostname="laptop2"
ifconfig_bge0="DHCP"
ifconfig_iwi0="WPA DHCP"
gnome_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
polkitd_enable="YES"
linux_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"
moused_type="auto"


>How-To-Repeat:
The computer stops in the same place most of the time. Sometimes, it boots without a problem.

State-Changed-Why:  
Does it crash (as in a kernel panic) or does it not boot (as in it hangs) ?

Sounds like this could be i386-specific.
