Hi Len,

Thanks for the follow-up.

Yes, this is still a problem for me.

In the mean time, I have installed 32bit lenny and it exhibits similar
problems. Currently I am using it (32bit) with "acpi=off".

Initially I had thought the problem only occurred after a suspend, but
now I suspect it happens even without a suspend having occurred. Rarely,
I experienced the boot problem after the system running for only a few
minutes and other times after several hours of continuous use. In both
these cases I don't think the system was ever idle long enough for a
suspend to have happened. Thus is seems to be an intermittent problem
that is more likely if the system has been running longer. I don't know
that I have ever had a successful boot after a suspend.

If I boot/restart/restart/restart it seems to work OK - another reason I
thought it was suspend that was causing the problem initially.

I am trying to remember if any previous version worked with ACPI
enabled. If there was it was Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10. I was using these for
a while but I think I disabled ACPI there also. I regret I don't have
notes and have since overwritten the installation with Debian, so can't
confirm. Everything I have tried has given me boot problems and
eventually I got everything booting successfully, but I think it may
have been by disabling ACPI in every case.

Regards,
Ian Goodacre
