Comment 17 for bug 32597

I have also the same problem. The Boot stops 9 of 10 times at "loading hardware drivers". After a few minutes the booting continues.
After that all works fine expect of my internet-connection (realtek networkcard with dslmodem).
pppoeconfig says it can't find the "access concentrator" of my provider.

I have to reboot until the "loading hardware drivers" bug don't appear. Then everything works fine.
