As I say, d-i's detecting the hang properly and doing almost the right thing; my only suggestion would be to turn off HWCLOCKACCESS when a hang is detected to prevent future hangs on boot. Fixing hwclock would be a better workaround, so I'm fine if you want to close this one or downgrade/reassign. The most plausible root cause for the issue I've heard is that the clock needs software intervention to start, which the vendor firmware does but our own kernels don't. Clean install otherwise. Nice job on all that. -- Devin \ aqua(at)devin.com, IRC:Requiem; http://www.devin.com Carraway \ 1024D/E9ABFCD2: 13E7 199E DD1E 65F0 8905 2E43 5395 CA0D E9AB FCD2
