[Bug 479597] Re: HP Mini 311 - Does not always boot

[syntax]

Mark: Blacklisting modules is not enough, you have to update initramfs.
See comment #13 and following.

Although I don't have HP Mini, I had the same issues with deadlocks during boot (comment #17).
Karmic Koala now boots quite reliably for me on Acer AO P531h with Broadcom 4315. I did the mentioned blacklisting and updated initramfs using live USB (which booted flawlessly, unlike the fresh installation on hard disk); once I got into the system, I have installed Broadcom STA driver using Restricted Drivers Manager (in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers). Now the wifi works smoothly, NetworkManager handles it very well. So give NetworkManager a try.
