I'm not sure what the issue is anymore. This is not fun.
Booting Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic and generic (recovery
mode) yields the problem above .

Booting into the 3.6.27-9-generic kernel gets me past GRUB  boots to a
certain point and then I get an issue where it stops booting at this
point

*Starting Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Daemon avahi-daemon                         [ OK ]

                                        [   OK ] +

It hangs here. I'm currently in the 27-11 generic recovery mode.
Trying to see if I can do anything there.

Thanks for all the help.
