I can demonstrate quite straightforwardly that this is not a kernel bug. All that it takes to make the system boot cleanly is to change 'iface eth0 inet dhcp' to 'iface eth0 inet manual' in /etc/network/interfaces. I'm looking into a better solution. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Karmic) St

I'm not convinced that this is a kernel bug. I think that we have not been careful enough to stop Upstart tearing the network interface down and setting it back up again at boot, and that as a result the root filesystem has gone away. Alt-Sysrq-w just says "SysRq : Show Blocked State". The target

Looking at the iscsitarget kernel component it seems to be based on r214 of the upstream repository. Looking at that repository there are a number of fixes there-in but none seem obviously related to the hangs reported. Looking at the original report and comparing that to Mathias' its not 100% ce

I'm not sure this is related to init scripts. If I disable open-iscsi init script (exit 0) the boot process hangs a little bit later. It seems to be related to a kernel bug. I'd also add that on my system I see an oops and IRQ 11 is being disabled. I've attached some screen shots of the boot proce
