I just want to add that I unfortunately have not been able to test this further (not even using -generic instead of -server kernels) since the machines in question needed to go into production. We went back to Ubuntu 9.10 for that. If I'm lucky I can maybe get one or two of these machines back in probably a few weeks to try again. Depends on how the project goes.
In the meantime I see that 2.6.32-22 is still the current version of the kernel image so I don't suppose anything changed here. Charles, are you possibly able to reboot your machine a few times (maybe five or more) in a row and see if the problems really don't reappear? When I had been testing I found that the occasional reboot (a day or two apart) generally did not trigger the hang but a few consecutive reboots one immediately after the other would. This could of course be total coincidence or BS but I really haven't been able to find any patterns here. Grasping at straws, as it were. Maybe of note: I also did pretty much exactly what you describe in comment #18, more than a few times: a clean install and then aptitude safe-upgrade (not dist-upgrade). Alas, a few reboots later the machine would hang again. Unfortunately I cannot really contribute much more at this point. -- kernel 2.6.32-32 makes machine hang during boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576001 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
