** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu 16.04: has been working fine for a year and a half, now suddenly
  freezing on bootup, with a permanent spinning logo.  The problem appears
- with the new (4.4.0-93) kernel.  (Things were fine in 4.4.0-93.)  My
+ with the new (4.4.0-93) kernel.  (Things were fine in 4.4.0-92.)  My
  system has /boot on a USB and root on LUKS (along with a 2nd data disk
  on LUKS).
  
- I can boot via a text console if I remove the "splash" kernel switch and 
changed $vt.handoff to "$vt.handoff=7".  Unfortunately, adding the "debug" 
switch causes a freeze, though "debug=vc" boots.  Also, for any of the settings 
that cause a freeze, if I add "break=mountroot", I can mount the LUKS disks by 
hand and continue with boot.
