[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

[Perpetual]

Chris, thanks for the response.  I responded once but must not have
saved the comment.  Point was that I had read the link, which lead to my
confusion initially.

High: A bug which fulfills one of the following criteria:

    * Has a severe impact on a small portion of Ubuntu users (estimated)
    * Makes a default Ubuntu installation generally unusable for some users
          o For example, if the system fails to boot, or X fails to start, on a certain make and model of computer 
    * A problem with an essential hardware component (disk controller, laptop built-in wireless, video card, keyboard, mouse)
    * Has a moderate impact on a large portion of Ubuntu users (estimated) 

Seems to me that at least bullet points 1 & 3 fit this bug.  Mandriva
2009 Errata notes that this is a known bug so doing the same in the
Ubuntu release notes would be a good thing.

I do appreciate Ubuntu and hate to see something that could potentially
turn people away from the distribution or Linux in some cases.

Thanks all!
