I added the modprobe ledtrig-heartbeat to /etc/rc.local for now, although I'm sure there's a better place.
I cycled the power 10 times. 9 times it was normal, but one time there was a 30s delay before boot completed. If it delayed 30s with LEDs off, many people will think the board is OFF.

Is there a race between the USB Ethernet PHY enumeration and the rootfs being ready to use network layer? Eg, no /sys mounted at that time in the bad case or somesuch? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/708883 Title: Panda board shuts down during boot -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
