I blacklisted iwl3945, and the boot goes normally with no hang (replicated about 50 times)
So I tried the following at the shell: # while true; do modprobe iwl3945; sleep 0.1; modprobe -r iwl3945; sleep 0.1; done Unfortunately this did not cause a hang, even after hundreds of iterations. The only difference between that and what udev is doing is that udev may load modules in parallel. So I blacklisted tg3 as well, then tried the attached shell script. ** Attachment added: "Script to repeatedly load iwl3945 and tg3 together" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18641918/test.sh -- [regression] 2.6.27-7 sometimes fails to boot (iwl3945 issue?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263059 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
