    When I try to shut down my system,it hangs up for a long time . This makes me bound to press my laptop's power button for 4 secs. to stop it forcefully. Now when I try to start, it shows a problem regarding "init" process; which is the extreme parent process in all Linux environment. Boot starts but after a while runs like infinite loop by showing a problem in init process.

    wrong forum...sounds like file corruption.

    maybe load a linux live disk and run the fsck command?
