@iamgrief: "Converting" i386 into amd64 is a real mess (such is written on the Internet). The various reinstall options in the setup are not changing the behavior, when just some debs are reinstalled. The VM continues crashing. The re-installation with formatting the disk works fine. I also made some clean installs, i386 and amd64 are both running without problems.
So I suspect an upgrade issue... maybe only with i386 installations? Maybe only VMs? So far I have no clue where to look for a reason. I'll keep the faulty VM... if somebody is interested... but since it's just a test VM, I'm fine with the "solution" to install a new one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1633172 Title: Linux 4.8 as in 16.10 hangs during boot Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have just upgraded to 16.10 and restarted my machine. The new 4.8 kernel seemed to take ages to boot and appears to have hanged. I have managed to boot the system with the older 4.4 kernels from 16.04 just fine without any problems from systemd etc.. Please fix this so I can stop selecting the kernel manually on each boot. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=1147110e-7ff9-41b0-a446-ac19e62a85c2 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-02-19 (236 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) IwConfig: lo no wireless extensions. enp4s0 no wireless extensions. eno1 no wireless extensions.
