Utopic will pick up the fix when it gets the 3.16.7-ckt2 updates. Those updates have now been applied to the -proposed repository. Would it be possible for you to test this latest kernel and post back if it resolves this bug? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

No console from ctrl+alt+fX. Re-installed from 14.10 install media, choosing do-not-install- updates, and found that strangely this still resulted in 3.16.0-28 being installed - and thus same boot hang. System boots fine with earlier kernel version (3.16.0-23). I tried the 'ubuntu-bug linux' console command to report a bug with the kernel - however, this gathers information about the running (working) kernel 3.16.0-23 rather than the broken 3.16.0-28. Will attach screenshot of output of text error during boot. --- ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: soren 2355 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: soren 2355 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=0e328329-6f3c-4967-a46e-9f695c6dd970 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-12-12 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release amd64 (20141022.1) IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. eth1 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
