We are also seeing this on a Dell R210 with 4GB of RAM using the
2.6.32-24-generic-pae (32-bit) ubuntu 10.04 system.  We are seeing oom
in ureadahead.  This prevents bootup approximately 75% of the time, but
sometimes it does boot.

Although Bug 600359 has similar symptoms, that appears to be problems
where low-end systems (256MB or less of RAM) run out of memory.  Our
system has 4GB of memory and therefore I wouldn't expect it to run out
of memory.

Perhaps this is a problem where ureadahead runs out of addressing space
on 32-bit systems?

We're going to disable ureadahead to workaround the issue.
