[Bug 510571] Re: Lucid guest won't boot with acpi in virtualbox

[arand]

I've had diverging reports on whether this occurs in Lucid. One stating that it boots fine with acpi, and my own testing which seems to indicate that it doesn't:
I've booted a liveCD of lucid and ran a lucid CD in vbox from there, it does get further than the karmic/jaunty version of virtualbox, but it instead stalls by the end of the plymouth screen, after pausing for a long while at the point where it stopped completely on karmic/jaunty.

I've tested applying the patch here as well, and it does make a
difference and it instead boots fine. But I'm curious as to the
divergence of reports..

Attaching a debdiff for Lucid as well, and uploading packages to my PPA
for testing.
