Public bug reported: I am using ubuntu 14.04. I upgraded kernel from 3.13.0-76 to 3.19.0-47. But I can not boot the machine after the upgrade. I can still boot into 3.13.0-76. The init script somehow just hangs. The machine is still alive. I can still see output from screen if I press power button. I thought it was because of graphics card driver. I booted into rescue mode and updated the nvidia driver. But still failed to boot. I can make it work if I boot into rescue mode, do a fsck, and resume normal boot. The machine can come up normally. But normal boot does not work. The graphics card I have is NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 210]. Attached is the dmesg log. There are two stack dumps in the log.
