> Gives an error and then the system just hangs

 With disk drives at least the machine may hang for up to 5 minutes before
getting around to trying to finish the startup procedures! It is easy to
stare at a blank screen for 3 minutes, sob, and give up. Perhaps this "long"
hang happens on some memory errors as well?
