A process of elimination, seems to indicate it's landscape related. By
going through my new machine setup <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BarryWarsaw>
and doing multiple reboots with disk snapshotting, it seems like things
are fine until I install Landscape and register the machine with the
Landscape server. What packages does that yield? dpkg.log says:
python-gdbm
landscape-common
landscape-client
landscape-client-ui
Now, clearly I'm using landscape on many other machines without any boot
problems, although this VM is the only one with landscape-client-ui.
Even stranger: purging the above packages does not eliminate the stalls.
It does reduce them, but they still happen occasionally. But I've
verified that taking a fresh install of Raring through to just before
installing landscape will not cause a stall. Once landscape is
installed, the stalls start to happen.

Title:
boot occasionally hangs while "Checking battery state..."
Status in “landscape-client” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
This is a bit of an odd environment, but I've recently noticed that
boot will occasionally hang just after "Checking battery state...". I
don't know for sure it's /etc/acpi/power.sh that's hanging, but that
seems like the most likely culprit.
This is an up-to-date 12.10 guest running in VMware Fusion 5.0.1
(825449) on OS X 10.6.8. I've disabled the splash screen so I can
watch the boot process. ctrl-C (and other keystrokes) seems to be
echoed back to the console, but has no effect.
When I send ctrl-alt-delete (via the VMware "Virtual Machine" menu
item), I see "acpid exiting" and the machine shuts down and reboots.
It usually successfully reboots after this, but not always.
I suppose not surprisingly, this seems related to power status pass-through.
If you go to VMware's settings->Other->Advanced and turn off "Pass power
status to VM" then it seems like boot never hangs. Note though that I have had
this setting enabled for ages, and enabling doesn't guarantee that the boot
will hang. But it never seems to hang with the setting disabled.
