I tried installing 14.04 via netboot but could not run the ""Detect Disks" step so i was not able to create a root partition. The "Detect Network Configuration" step also tried to load yenta_socket but i was able to skip it and still had a working network connection.
I resorted to installing 14.04 from my working 10.04 install via debootstrap and tested both the stock 14.04 kernel (3.12.0-2-generic) and the latest trusty mainline kernel (3.12.0-031200-generic). On both kernels i get the freeze when either yenta_socket is loaded on boot or from a terminal via modprobe. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/911210 Title: Kernel freeze on Acer Aspire 1510 since Maverick To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/911210/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
