The problem seems to stem with the USB drive plugged in but not powered on. Unplugging the USB drive before bootup and the problem goes away.

Booted up today and the HAL daemon failed even with the USB Hard Drive unplugged. Please help! Let me know what information I can provide to track down this problem further.. Jeff
