Thanks Signals, After some problems with Debian accepting my pass words,
either mine or administrative, along with Debian stopping in the middle
of starting up I finally got the Root terminal to run the command and
cured the problem with the resolution. It still doesn't like my
passwords as I had to restart the program to get the resolution
recognized. It stopped again asking for the password or typing in
Control-D. It wouldn't take any of those things and it wasn't till I
typed in Exit from the program that it continued on into The Debian Desk
top.
Thanks friends.

Prob. booted into singel user, and then it stops before going multi
user.
Ctrl-D (or exit command) continues booting into multi user mode.

Thanks AJackson,
I haven't had any problems with the program booting lately but now I see
why. I have just been letting Grubb handle the start up and it doesn't
use the single user command. Now I can see the correlation.
