Hi Derrick,

I've locked onto a system that consistently shows this behavior since being 
upgraded in AFS versions, to which I have a console connection.

With AFS running on the system, and rebooting it shows:

directory5.Stanford.EDU console login:
WARM shutting down of: CB... afs... BkG... CTrunc... AFSDB... RxEvent... 
RxListener...
syncing file systems... done

At this point it hangs.

I can then send a break, and reset the system (this time brining it up 
without AFS).

Now when I reboot:

directory5.Stanford.EDU console login:
syncing file systems... done
rebooting...
Resetting ...

and everything works just fine.

Running /usr/afsws/etc/rxdebug directory5.stanford.edu when the system is 
in a hung state results in nothing happening.
I suspect this is because RxListener has already shut down.
