I have a LFS 7.2 system and a Shuttle AV49 motherboard.
About one time in every 20 bootups, my computer hangs
up and I have to power it down and back up. When it
hangs, the last line I see on the monitor is:

  Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled

When it boots successfully, the next line I see is:

  serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A

So it appears that the problem has something to do with
the uart. I've tried searching the web and I did find
some mention of a potential problem detecting the uart,
but I didn't find a solution. Is anyone aware of this
particular problem? I assume it is a kernel bug of some
kind. I haven't been able to get any useful information
from the logs, everything just seems to stop at the
above point.

Thanks,

Richard
