I have 7.04 installed on two systems, one is a desktop using an Abit
IC7-G with two WD250's hanging off the Intel SATA controller in software
RAID1.  The other is a server using an Asus P5W64WS with a PCIe-based
3Ware 9650SE 8 port card with two drives in RAID1  and the remainder in
RAID6 (read: no drives are connected to the motherboard SATA / IDE
controllers).  In other words, two totally different systems that use
completely different hardware and methods to access the root filesystem.
The desktop is a relatively old machine (built 2 years ago), while the
server is new.  Both systems experience the bug....though I admit I
don't see it as frequently on the server since I seldom boot it.

I'm attaching a screenshot of the end of the boot process from the
desktop machine running 2.6.20-15-generic. I can't use the recently
upgraded kernel (2.6.20-16-generic) because it hangs the box just after
it jumps from the bootloader.  No error...just a black screen.  Not much
to go on, I know, but I figured I'd throw my hardware configurations in
here along with some proof of the failure.
