[Bug 1078525] Re: Boot process grinds to a halt when smartphone is plugged in USB

[James Hunt]

Try pressing the escape key when booting and see if any messages that
look relevant appear. Ideally, you should boot by removing "quiet" and
"splash" from the kernel command-line.

It would be useful to see your /etc/fstab file if you can attach it too.

What happens if you boot the machine normally, login, and then plug your
phone in? Is it mounted as a USB disk?
