Does it continue booting if you keep pressing the Ctrl key repeatedly? I have one that does, with kernel 2.6.23-rc1-git9 -- otherwise it just sits there indefinitely. As soon as I press a key it continues. This is even with 'nohz=off highres=off'. Using 'nolapic_timer' (by itself) fixes it, though. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
