So your boot process hangs after bootlogd is started, correct? Can you
force the boot process to continue with <ctrl>+<c>?

Did you already try to remove bootlogd and see whether that fixes your
boot process?

please try to describe more detailed what exactly happens, and what
doesn't happen despite you expecting it to happen.
