is this related/the same as the problem i have described on the ubuntu-server mailing list[1][2]?
i did not have any problems booting a freshly-installed ubuntu-server system around May 1, 2010, but then a couple weeks later, on a second server with identical hardware, the BIOS hung trying to detect the disks. the same thing happened (BIOS hanging) again on a third, identical server. after deleting the partitions on the disks, i tried last week to re-install ubuntu-server but BIOS hung again. today, i tried re-installing with the network cable unplugged since i thought it might have to do with an updated package the installer was downloading. still no luck.
