Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ureadahead

Stock Kubuntu Lucid, fresh install.  /var is on root.  One time in four
system will boot, other times it hangs after listing amount of shared
and non-shared memory.  After successful boot, I see complaints about
ureadahead out of memory in the kernel log.  This is an i7 quad core
running in 32-bit mode, 6gigs of RAM and the PAE kernel.

Problem goes away after I removed ureadahead files from /etc/init.  So
ureadahead is sometimes--but not consistently--doing something for which
it does not find it'll fit in memory.  Its failure is apparently keeping
the rest of the boot process from proceeding.  Problem goes away 100% if
ureadahead is not attempted during boot.
