Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.27

After upgrading to intrepid from hardy, the new kernel (linux-
image-2.6.27-11-generic) will no longer boot.  The boot process unlocks
the encrypted volume with LUKS just fine, but then prints  "Reading all
physical volumes.  (this might take a while)" and keeps repeating that
line.  I've left it running for several hours and all it does is repeat
that line.  Booting the old kernel from hardy (linux-
image-2.6.24-23-generic) works just fine.

My laptop is a Sony Vaio VGN-TZ150N with Intel chipsets and is using the
ata_piix module.  My installation uses a LUKS/dm-crypt volume that uses
LVM to share the encrypted volume between root and swap.

This is *not* the problem where it eventually drops to busybox/initramfs
and typing exit will successfully boot.  With this problem the boot
never drops into busybox no matter what value I use for rootdelay.
