Comment 23 for bug 384579

On my Thinkpad X31 i have this problem as well. Some observations: This is happening since upgrade to Karmic Alpha 2, but booting the 2.6.28 from Jaunty still gives the error. The Lockup during boot seems to be with the initialisation of hardware; has the the mechanism of loading drivers changed?

I don't have floppy drive built in, but the docking station has a hot-swapping port available.
