Public bug reported: I just updated on Feisty to kernel 2.6.20-14 from -13 and when I rebooted it stalled at almost 0%. I changed grub and removed the -quiet switch and I get the following: -- Loading essential drivers ... OK Running /scripts/init-premount... OK Mounting root file system ... Running /scripts/local-top ... OK Waiting for root file system ... -- If I run in single user mode I see these lines before it stops: -- [ 12.344000] ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) [ 12.344000] ata3.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 625142448, hpa_sectors = 4385456 [ 12.344000] ata3.00: ATA-6: WDC WD3200JD-22KLBO, 08.05J08, max UDMA/100 [ 12.344000] ata3.00: 625142448 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 -- These lines refer to my one and only SATA hard disk on /dev/sda3. I have spent some time looking around for other people with this issue and just wanted to clarify that my /etc/fstab is using UUIDs instead of /dev/hda or /dev/sda devices (which seemes to be a common issue for some people). I can still boot with 2.6.20-13. It looks like the SATA controller may have changed between -13 and -14.
