i just wanted to followup to confirm Jan Wagner's workaround. When i
blacklist 8250_pnp, i can boot successfully with 2.6.17-2-686.
i blacklisted 8250_pnp in two spots: /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/8250_pnp, and
also in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (i'm running backported udev and not
hotplug on this system, so i wasn't certain that the hotplug blacklist
would have an effect).
I'm not sure what i lose by having 8250_pnp blacklisted, though, since
this appears to be newly modular as of 2.6.17. Do i lose the ability
to use non-console serial ports? I've tried to dig around on lkml,
but haven't come up with any clear explanations of this module. Any
pointers for where to find the details?
