Comment 52 for bug 85370

Hello, I had an issue with very long blocking time after the "kernel alive" message, before the system continued to boot with my amd64 kubuntu 7.10 installation, running on an Intel Core2 Extreme CPU Q6850 inside a VMware workstation 6.0.2 virtual machine.

I tried to install the updated kernel (2.6.24-4-generic by now) as was described by Leann Ogasawara in his post earlier in this thread on 2007-12-04, and this works fine - no more delays!

Thanks a lot
