Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-7-generic
After updating my Edgy install from linux-image-2.6.17-6-386 to linux- image-2.6.17-7-generic (2.6.17-7.20) and linux-image-generic (2.6.17.5), I now experience boot failures as follows: When attempting to boot from the new kernel as setup by grub (/vmlinuz-2.6.17-7-generic root=/dev/sdb3 ro quiet splash), the system just hangs on the bootsplash screen. If I boot without the 'splash' argument, I get: "Booting the operating system now. [17179583.308000] usb 1-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71" If I try booting to single-user mode (/vmlinuz-2.6.17-7-generic root=/dev/sdb3 ro single), I get normal text boot messages until: "[17179587.120000] drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6: USB HID core driver" where it hangs. Note that I continue to boot okay with the 2.6.17-6-386 kernel. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Edgy boot failure after kernel update https://launchpad.net/bugs/59776 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
