Summary: Hang on boot when USB-stick attached Product: ACPI Version: 2.5 KernelVersion: 2.6.25-rc8 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Other AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Distribution: Ubuntu 7.10 Hardware Environment: ASUS P4C800 Motherboard, P4 2.8 GHz, 2x 512 mb Corsair memory Seagate ST3120023AS harddisk, SATA 120gb Nvidia GeForce 4Mx graphics card ps2 mouse and keyboard Plextor cd-writer samsung dvd-reader Problem Description: My computer hangs on boot if I have certain usb sticks attached to it while booting. With a Sandisk Cruzer Micro 512 mb the bug happens, with a 1gb Kingston it doesn't. The initial initializing of the kernel seems to go fine, but it seems likes it hangs when it comes to the ACPI part. On the mainline 2.6.25-rc8 kernel, the last message it outputs is just: ACPI: Core revision 20070126 On the Ubuntu 2.6.24-12 kernel, it also outputs ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... error, file /DSDT.aml not found The cursor still blinks, indicating the system is not completely locked up, but ctrl-alt-del does not work, I have to make a hard reset via the computers reset button. I'm guessing that this problem should be filed under ACPI rather than somewhere under USB, but please tell me if I should do otherwise. During boot, the BIOS detects and initializes the usb-stick as a mass storage device, maybe this has something do with the problem. I've not been able to turn this behavior off from the BIOS. Steps to reproduce: Put in the Sandisk Cruzer Micro 512mb usb stick into the usb port.
