[Bug 69160] hal failed to initialize

[RGilbert]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hal

edgy 6.1
Current Operating System: Linux rg-desktop 2.6.17-10 i686

During system bootup, after restart, received error message hal failed
to initialize.

Event: System bootup finished, plugged in LG 1gb usb flash drive,
complete system freeze.

Turned machine off. reboot. hal error message received.

edgy seems to be having problems mounting usb removable media. no
problems with same media in breezy.

2nd scenario: plug 2gb pny sd card into reader, does not auto mount.
auto mount and hot plug are both option selected as menu option.

Temporarily resolve sd problem by opening up removable drive dialog box
and closing. the system then mounts sd.

** Affects: hal (Ubuntu)

         Status: Unconfirmed
