[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

[chazsheen]

I can confirm that this bug is also affecting me with an HP DV6704nr
laptop (AMD64 X2, nVidia 7150M, etc.). Nitto's trick does work as well
as holding down the button. I noticed this immediately from booting up
the LiveCD as without the power supply being plugged in it hung up at
the boot and with the power supply plugged in it booted.

Previously had 8.04 installed with no problems. Did a clean install with
8.10 and ran into this issue immediately - booting with no splash screen
shows that I'm hanging at the same spot. Same with shutdown/restart.
