It hangs after a few initialization steps and then after 145 seconds, it continues to boot. I bisected kernel and found that offensive revision is: 08ec0c58fb8a05d3191d5cb6f5d6f81adb419798 "x86: Improve TSC calibration using a delayed workqueue" Older kernels before above revision work fine. When passing acpi=off to kernel, the problem seems to disappear. Dmesg output below where you can see the jump from 1.47 to 146.85. The mainboard is an Asus M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 (latest BIOS revision). Kind regards, Chris PS: the problem has also been reported to ubuntu where more hw information is attached. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/765230 PSS: dmesg output [ 1.473495] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 4 [io 0x0000-0x0cf7] [ 1.473496] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 5 [io 0x0d00-0xffff] [ 1.473497] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 6 [mem 0x000a0000-0x000bffff] [ 1.473499] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 7 [mem 0x000d0000-0x000dffff] [ 1.473500] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 8 [mem 0xcff00000-0xdfffffff] [ 1.473502] pci_bus 0000:04: resource 9 [mem 0xf0000000-0xfebfffff] [ 1.473504] pci_bus 0000:05: resource 0 [io 0xe000-0xefff] [ 1.473505] pci_bus 0000:05: resource 1 [mem 0xfe900000-0xfe9fffff] [ 1.473506] pci_bus 0000:05: resource 2 [mem 0xfdf00000-0xfdffffff64bit pref] [ 1.473528] NET: Registered protocol family 2 [ 1.473742] IP route cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 9, 097152 bytes) [ 1.474749] TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 11, 8388608 bytes) [ 1.476599] TCP bind hash table entries: 65536 (order: 8, 1048576 bytes) [ 1.476906] TCP: Hash tables configured (established 524288 bind 65536) [ 1.476956] TCP reno registered [ 1.476991] UDP hash table entries: 4096 (order: 5, 131072 bytes) [ 1.477058] UDP-Lite hash table entries: 4096 (order: 5, 131072 bytes) [ 1.477185] NET: Registered protocol family 1 [ 1.477217] pci 0000:00:01.0: MSI quirk detected; subordinate MSI disabled [ 146.850204] pci 0000:01:05.0: Boot video device [ 146.850243] PCI: CLS 64 bytes, default 64 [ 146.851583] PCI-DMA: Disabling AGP.
