   Sounds more like some program critical to startup is hanging because it   
   wants and does not have internet access. You just need to narrow down   
   which program it is.   
   Can you log in on a console? (alt-ctl-F2  and then log in) without X?   
   If you can you could run ps aux>/tmp/ps and see what is running. Or run   
   pstree.
