I'm on the console, now. Looks like a swapspace problem...

The first terminal is scrolling by the swapspace messages really fast (it kills httpd, but then starts again).
I tried logging in on the 2nd and 3rd virtual console, but hangs after I type root - never prompts for password.

Is there anything I can do besides rebooting?

On that subject... does Ctrl-Alt-Del initiate an orderly shutdown?
