I also am getting the following errors at boot:
err1>   klogctl invalid parameter
err2>   username "gdm" unknown for system message bus
err3>   lighttpd (configfile.c.1136) base-docroot doesn't exist 
/var/www/idmgr (server.c.591) setting default values failed
err4>   hddtemp too few parameters
err5>   squid [FAILED]

fix1>
Apparently, /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit is issuing "dmesg -n 9" on line 299.  I 
fixed as follows:

if [ -n "$LOGLEVEL" -a "$LOGLEVEL" -ge 1  -a "$LOGLEVEL" -le 6 ]; then
        /bin/dmesg -n $LOGLEVEL

fix2>  yum install gdm

fix3>  mkdir /var/www/idmgr

fix4>  Changed this line in /etc/init.d/hddtemp (added /dev/sda at the 
end)

 daemon $exec -d $HDDTEMP_OPTIONS /dev/sda

I'll work on squid tomorrow.

Good night.
