I'm sure it's with -6 -- this was booting fine until I installed all the updates and rebooted, and now it doesn't boot. -4 still boots fine, however (using it now).
Expanding on my previous comment, while -6 only runs /scripts/local- bottom (I believe it's only that) before waiting for root filesystem, -4 runs several, include /scripts/local-premount, /scripts/local-top, and some others. -- kernel 2.6.19-6 does not boot https://launchpad.net/bugs/73057 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
