I also notice hard hangs on boots from time to time with earlier kernels. with the update to 2.6.27-4.5, I tryed to boot 5 times in a row without success.
the symptoms: boot succeeds to mount rootfs, check file systems until about loading 'restricted modules' and then hard hangs. no caps lock working anymore. I did not find dmesg output in /var/log/dmesg when this happens. this is on an X60s -- (some) thinkpads hard hang at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263330 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
