Also, it pauses for a good long minute at the very beginning of the boot process while it looks for the firmware. Debian Testing has this same problem with pausing for a long time at the exact same point during boot and installing a package named something like firmware-qla23xx took care of the boot delay and I was able to see the SAN LUNs. Unfortunately this firmware-qla23xx package does not exist in the Ubuntu repos, since the firmware is already installed but apparently broken. James
