Bug#479381: linux-image-2.6.25-1-686: Booting pauses for about 30 seconds on Acer Aspire 5710Z
Package: linux-image-2.6.25-1-686
Version: 2.6.25-1
Severity: normal
Since version 2.6.24 booting the Debian kernel is quite slow because it
pauses for about 30 seconds. It always happens after those lines in the
booting process:
[ 9.990058] iTCO_wdt: Found a ICH7-M TCO device (Version=2, TCOBASE=0x1060)
[ 9.990091] iTCO_wdt: initialized. heartbeat=30 sec (nowayout=0)
Since the interval is "heartbeat=30 sec" and also the pause is always
about 30 seconds long, there might be a connection. The problem happens
on an Acer Aspire 5710Z laptop.

please report that upstream on bugzilla.kernel.org and let us know the
bug number.

Sebastian, does the problem still persist with the Lenny kernel?
If so, did you file the kernel.org bug report as suggested by Maks?
Cheers,
Moritz

Yes, I did file the bug on kernel.org:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10728
Unfortunately I cannot test this issue anymore since I've changed my
laptop since then and in my current laptop there are no such problems.
I did what Andrew Morton suggested in my bug report there. However, it
couldn't help find the cause since the pause doesn't happen when the
kernel boots up, but when init has been running for quite a bit already.
In the end I wasn't even sure anymore if this was actually a kernel bug
or maybe something with udev, as some comments by Marco Piazza suggested
in the upstream bug report.
If I'm the only one who had this problem, I'm fine with simply closing
this bug report. For me the bug got fixed by buying a new laptop.

I've seen this problem too, but never got round to reporting it as a
bug. I'm not sure whether it's the kernel or udev (or something else)
at fault. It's totally reproducible on this particular machine so I can
provide any information necessary to track this down.

Maybe you have a wlan0_rename device or similar? IIRC there were some
changes in 2.6.24 that cause breakage with the
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules that etch's udev creates¹.
Some seven months ago I had this problem myself, also on a laptop with
the b43 driver, the solution was to move said file out of the way and
reboot. See also this Ubuntu bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/213903 and its
duplicates.
Sven
¹ In etch the file is /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules, it is
automatically renamed on udev upgrades.

The upstream bug report says udev (or its configuration) is at fault.
After some further investigation, I found the same is true in my case,
but it seems unconnected.
