Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-headers-2.6.32-20

After updating to linux-headers-2.6.32-20 today (april 12th, 2010), my system refuses to boot into ubuntu.

Update Manager promted me with updates including linux-headers-2.6.32-20. I allowed the updates and was later promted with a restart. I waited with this though, because I wanted to finish with some work, so about an hour later I rebooted. This is when the problem began.
After I get through GRUB, my laptop hangs. I get no info during the boot, and there is no harddisk activity. The only thing I can do is kill it hard, by pressing the start button. I try again, same thing.
Afterwards I try booting with 2.6.32-20-recovery. This time I get some info during the boot, but then it hangs. Again, no harddisk activity.
Third time's a charm, so I try booting with 2.6.32-19. This works, and I'm able to boot into a working ubuntu. However I experienced once that ubuntu began to hang, when I tried to shut it down. This I haven't reproduced yet.

Now the wierd thing is, if I take out my harddisk at try booting it from USB on another computer, ubuntu boot's perfectly. Even with linux-headers-2.6.32-20.

I'm using Ubuntu Lucid 10.04, Development branch
apt-cache gives:
