[Bug 601986] Re: Disk driver problems on Toshiba NB305Netbook

[jim_charlton]

If I boot maverick with or without bootchart installed the system hangs
on booting.  I did not wait forever but after a minute tapped the left
shift key twice at a 10 second interval.  The system gave the message
"Gave up waiting for root device", a couple of other lines and then
dropped to the initramfs prompt.  I also note that the system won't
shutdown after the "reboot" command until I tap the left SHIFT key.

Adding intel_idle.max_cstate=0 to the kernel command line does nothing
for me.  I only tried it once but it seems to boot slower, still
requiring the left SHIFT key tap and it won't go into hibernation.  It
hangs when I close the lid (lid button configured to do hibernation
rather than suspend.  I have to reset to recover from this.
