/dev/ttys0 and ttys1 are your serial ports I think. If
you have anything plugged in, unplug it if it is
causing the boot process to stall. If there is nothing
plugged in then for some reason the Mepis kernel
doesn't like your serial ports, or at least your
serial ports are causing the process to stall.

If unplugging the devices from your serial ports
solves the problem then bingo. If it doesn't or you
don't have anything plugged in, then either try
another kernel (that means you have build it if there
isn't an updated Mepis kernel), another Linux distro
or learn to live with it.

Don't know what else to say.
