Hi all!
I have an unusual problem on my Acer Aspire 2023WLMi (a Centrino laptop), and I hope someone of you can help me.
I installed (from dvd) Mdk 10.1 Official. Installing goes straight, and he recognizes and configures pratically each device. First reboot goes ok, and everything works well, except for the network interfaces that are unconfigured.
Anyway, from second boot the problem appear. The boot goes straight up to this point:
Inizializing firewire controller (ohci 1394) ... OK Starting netprofil ... OK INIT: entering runlevel: 5 Starting non interactive boot Starting udev...
And then the system freezes for a couple minutes, with keyboard not working and silent HD. Then it starts again and happily ends boot.
I disabled network services at boot, but nothing changes. I disabled, udev, and freeze happens at "starting dkms". I disabled even dkms and it freeze on "Starting pcmcia". Finally, I disabled all services, and also changed the default runlevel to 3 and then 2: nothing changes.
A curious thing is that booting in runlevel 2 (so, without graphic and nfs), the login prompt appears, and an istant later the system freeze. I wait a couple minute, and the cursor start blinking again and I can log and fully use the system.
No more ideas about the problem. Do you have any?
If you need details about laptop configuration or any system log, just ask.
Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english. :)
