Hi all,

I am seeing a strange hang on boot on an IBM T30, right after the "freeing
unused kernel memory" message. It goes away if ACPI is configured. It
doesn't hang, actually (pressing enter causes scroll) but init never does
its thing.

What are some common things that could cause this? I was thinking this could
be EC-related, but it still happens with no EC support...I thought it might
be some disk-related IRQ weirdness. Does the IDE driver take interrupts when
it probes, or only when it transfers data? If only the latter, then maybe a
lack of IDE interrupts could be the cause?

What else could cause this behavior?

Regards -- Andy
