Alfredo,
I am going to need some further detail. Would you mind providing the apport collected data to this bug as well as expanding the description of the error a bit? We are experiencing several similar issues and I'd like to determine if this is one of those or a new issue.

Thanks!

Apport File Edit (1.2 MiB, text/plain)

Jeremy,

I'm managing about 200 Ubuntu installation (150 Ubuntu Desktop, 50 Ubuntu Server).
I've just upgraded 20 desktop installation from 9.10 to 10.04 without particular problems.
I made 4 brand new 10.4 installation and for all this desktops I can confirm that after restarting with the new kernel installed, the boot process freezes on the usb device enumeration step.
Attached you can find the apport file generated on uone of this machines.

Please fell free to get in touch with me for any further information you might find useful.

Thank you very much
