Through experimentation (trial & error) I have managed to get 11.04 to boot without hanging by adding two lines [ network 192.168.0,0 \\ broadcast 192.168.1.255 ] to /etc/network/interfaces. I still have to run "ifup -a" manually. The network manager seems to be an aweful mess: it does not seem to work sensibly: two missing deducible lines in `interfaces' causes a hard loop in supervisor mode and appears to be responsible for the hard loop early during shutdown. It could be, of course, the ethernet driver for the Realtec RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast (r8169 ?) and the Network manager could be innocent! John Hunter.
