Please note the following in my original report: I noticed the bug #847782 and removed the "auto eth0" entry from my /etc/network/interfaces. Unfortunately that did not change anything, it still hangs forever. Also in my comment #1: - I am using wired interface (eth0) with no defined configuration. It makes no difference if my network cable is plugged in or not. I wiped my installation and replaced it with Xubuntu as soon as I realized that oneiric standard desktop installation does not offer the "Classic Ubuntu" GUI experience any more. Thus I can not reproduce / test any more. -- Janne Snabb / EPIPE Communications [email protected] - http://epipe.com/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/856810 Title: Boot hangs at "Booting system without full network configuration..." Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “netcfg” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I installed Ubuntu 11.10 beta1 64bit on a new laptop. I rebooted and it came up nicely. After that I did "apt-get update" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" to get the most recent fixes and installed some additional software. Now I do not seem to be able to boot. Fist I see: Waiting for network configuration... Then I see: Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration... And then it just hangs forever displaying the following: Booting system without full network configuration... Nothing happens after that, no matter how long I wait. However, I can switch to the console with CTRL-ALT-F1 and log in from there. The network is configured with DHCP and it works just fine from the console. I do not understand what the GUI boot display is waiting for. I installed the system using the alternate install CD to get LVM based partitions with full disk encryption.
