Public bug reported:
I upgraded using update manager from 9.10 on my spare desktop, to see if Lucid
worked.
Unfortunately it doesn't - it freezes at boot.
I've tried all three kernels available, and they all freeze at the same
point - after my disks are initialized (I presume from the console after
udev has done its thing) during init-bottom. The last lines I see are:
sd 8:0:0:[0-4] [sdN] Attached SCSI removable disk
I have a RAID card in my PC attached to one of the hard drives. Thinking
that this was the culprit, I removed the card...but the issue still
occurs.
I've tried grub with noapic and noacpi in various combinations, but that
doesn't help. Using init=/bin/bash got me to a shell, at which point I
could start X (albeit without mouse and keyboard), and dhclient. The
first (root) hard drive is present and mounted; the others are all in
/dev/disk/by-uuid as I expected, but not mounted.
Let me know what you need to debug this, and I'll grab it. It'll be hard
to post logs without getting X up with the peripherals working, so if
you have a hint for that, let me know.
