Public bug reported:

I was lucky enough to get a 4-socket Sandy Bridge (Xeon E5-4600 series)
box, but unfortunately the default install of 12.04 hangs during boot
while loading the sb_edac module.  This is due to a bug in
drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, as of now not yet fixed in upstream.  However I
sent the small fix: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/31/371

I would suggest pulling this fix into the Ubuntu 3.2 tree as the
consequences are pretty severe: the box won't boot after install without
some manual monkeying to add a blacklist of the sb_edac module to the
modprobe config.
