Package: base
Severity: normal

Often, but not always, the boot process hangs up. The last message written to
the console is
Decompressing Linux ....  Parsing ELF ....
There is a quick-flashing cursor at the end of the line (maybe 4 flashes /
second).
The only way to regain control of the system is to turn off the power.
Sometimes a capital "S" shows on the line above that one, something like this:
                                                    S
Decompressing Linux ....  Parsing ELF ....
I'm not sure of the exact position of the S. Also I'm not sure if I have the
right capitalization, or number of dots or spaces.

I have had some instances of the boot process hanging up at a later stage, but
usually it is at this stage.

This could be a problem with my hardware. I don't know how to tell if that
might be the case.

Hi,
your bug has been filed against the "linux-2.6" source package and was filed for
a kernel older than the recently released Debian 7.0 / Wheezy with a severity
less than important.

We don't have the ressources to reproduce the complete backlog of all older kernel
bugs, so we're closing this bug for now. If you can reproduce the bug with Debian Wheezy
or a more recent kernel from testing or unstable, please reopen the bug by sending
a mail to control@bugs.debian.org with the following three commands included in the
mail:

reopen BUGNUMBER
reassign BUGNUMBER src:linux
thanks

Cheers,
        Moritz
