[Bug 543085] [NEW] External Drive Causing Boot Hang

[dolphinaura]

Public bug reported:

When certain models of Western Digital external drives are plugged in at
bootup, they cause the computer to occasionally hang at "connect-
debounce failed, port x disabled"

my thinking is that the correct kernel modules are not loaded before the
kernel attempts to access the drive.

at any rate, having a connection problem with an external drive should
not hinder/hang the boot process.
