From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Opera/8.51 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Description of problem: During boot up both 2.6.15 (1830 and 1831) kernels hang at hardware initialisation after the audio entry. (The audio entry is displayed) There is no keyboard interrupt. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.15-1.1830, -1.1830smp , -1.1831, -1.1831smp_FC4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot into a 2.6.15 fc4 kernel 2. wait 3. Actual Results: No keyboard interrupt - nothing You have to reset you PC with the reset switch Expected Results: Smooth boot Additional info: Maybe it is related to a (not yet known) hardware-bug in my MSI 865PE NEO3 Board (/w P4 2.8 HT), because the poweroff bug was never resolved for my system (I have to switch off the pc manually) I've read # 179968 so I left my PC on during one night to see if the machine boots up finally, but it didn't.
