Linux actually panics and print trace and never reaches root mount. Previous observation might be incorrect since Linux continues to handle events (as SCSI and USB insertions) while scrollling trace output.
I can observe only tail of trace: EIP: is at acpi_ex_read_data_from_field+0x131/0x168 SS:ESP 0068:f70ddd70 With acpi=off there is no trace or panic, boot progress a little more but dies later, maybe because I I boot from USB :-( -- Boot hangs after update to kernel 2.6.32-20 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561140 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
