It's highly probable that this is related to the iwl3945 driver. Unfortunately, I've experienced this bug even with the RF kill switch enabled (probably because it's still loading iwl3945). I was able to boot by disabling wireless in BIOS config (so the driver is not loaded).
I'm not sure if it always works, but I've been able to boot normally with wireless enabled by booting in recovery mode and then choosing "resume" to continue normal boot. -- laptop sometimes hangs at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
