Public bug reported:
I am trying to boot Xubuntu and Lubuntu 14.04 live desktop i386 on an
old Acer laptop with Celeron 2.66GHz CPU, 512MB ram (I know, it is low
on ram) and a Radeon Mobility 9100 igp.
The system simply freezes at the Plymouth screen with Xubuntu/Lubuntu
and coloured dots showing and eventually an error "Waiting for network
configuration" appears and the system will go no further no matter how
long I wait.
I have tried with and without a cable network connection to the Realtek
RTL 8139 ethernet card, but can not try wireless as I need to use
ndiswrapper for the only adapter I have, a Netgear WG511v2 using Marvell
chips, showing as 88w8335 {libertas} in lshw output.
All previous versions of Xubuntu and Lubuntu up to and includiong 13.10
boot fine on this machine in spite of its low spec.
I have asked for help at Ubuntuforums
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2200517&p=12907617#post12907617
and it was suggested there that I file this as a bug.
