[Bug 576001] Re: kernel 2.6.32-32 makes machine hang during boot

[Andreas Ntaflos]

I just want to add that I unfortunately have not been able to test this
further (not even using -generic instead of -server kernels) since the
machines in question needed to go into production. We went back to
Ubuntu 9.10 for that. If I'm lucky I can maybe get one or two of these
machines back in probably a few weeks to try again. Depends on how the
project goes.

In the meantime I see that 2.6.32-22 is still the current version of the
kernel image so I don't suppose anything changed here.

Charles, are you possibly able to reboot your machine a few times (maybe
five or more) in a row and see if the problems really don't reappear?
When I had been testing I found that the occasional reboot (a day or two
apart) generally did not trigger the hang but a few consecutive reboots
one immediately after the other would. This could of course be total
coincidence or BS but I really haven't been able to find any patterns
here. Grasping at straws, as it were.

Maybe of note: I also did pretty much exactly what you describe in
comment #18, more than a few times: a clean install and then aptitude
safe-upgrade (not dist-upgrade). Alas, a few reboots later the machine
would hang again.

Unfortunately I cannot really contribute much more at this point.
