 A repeat of the description of the issue (with lines now wrapped):
 
 When FreeBSD 5.2 is booted with verbose logging enabled ("Boot FreeBSD
 with verbose logging), and when a local script kills the boot-up, then
 that can happen without the script being named.
 
 An old Lucent winmodem script (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ltmdm.sh) was
 stopping booting of FreeBSD 5.2 after an installworld.
 
 (The localdaemons script in /etc/rc.d/ was renamed to localpkg in
 2003.)
 
 
 Fix:
 
 The file /etc/rc.d/localpkg might have code like this, added to it:
 
 if [ `sysctl -n debug.bootverbose` -eq 1 ]; then
    echo "==>" ${script}
 fi
