Bug#497692: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686: hangs at consolechars invocation during boot
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-4
Severity: important
This version hangs at boot during the consolechars invocation in
/etc/init.d/console-screen.sh (found by set -x in the script). At this
point not even the magic keys work (at least on this USB connected
keyboard).
linux-image-2.6.25-2-686 version 2.6.25-7 works fine on this machine.
My home machine does not display this bug at all.
The only apparantly relevant discussion I could find is at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/13/381 , maybe this helps.
