This is the halts disabled position.  Set it to dot-in-the-circle (halts
enabled) and it should give you the >>> prompt.

In the halts disabled position is attempts autoboot.  I assume that the
hang you are seeing is the result of autoboot not succeeding / looping.
Setting the dot in the circle will disable autoboot and give you the console;
you can then check your system out manually.
