Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-686
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-10
Severity: important
All the versions of linux-image-2.6.18-*-686 that I have tried normally
hang when booting on my Sony Vaio PCG-Z600LEK. Last time I had to boot
4 times before the machine booted correctly. I have to poweroff between
each boot attempt.
linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 boots everytime.
The first time the boot hung after these lines:
PIIX4 devres I PIO at 0398-0399
PIIX4 devres J PIO at 0398-0399
ACPI: Embedded Controller [EC0] (gpe 9) interrupt mode
The second time it hung after:
ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (:00)
ACPI: Assume root bridge [\_SB_.PCI0] bus is 0
The third time it hung after:
