Public bug reported:

Problem occurs when booting "Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-22-generic"
(line copied from /boot/grub/menu.lst) on an Acer Aspire 5100 laptop.
After initial install the boot went ok.  I have a configuration document
I follow to perform a fresh install of Ubuntu, and I was nearing the
completion of the install.  As the final series of steps, I installed
wine and network-manager-pptp, configured wine, and installed a Windows
program under wine.  VPN requires a reboot to enable VPN, and the
problem occurs during the reboot.  Based on previous experience, the
problem will recur on every single reboot.  The work-around is to boot
from "Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic" instead. I suspect the
problem is caused by VPN, and next time I do a fresh install, I will
reboot after each of my install steps, to confirm the machine will still
boot.  I am not using Ubuntu 8.10 because I haven't been able to get
wireless to work under 8.10.
