RC5 - Long delay during boot
Fresh, full install of RC5.
During boot I experience a long (~15 seconds) delay usually immediately after i915 drm is initialized, everything seems to just freeze. After the delay I get the following messages, then it continues to boot normally. Code:
udevd[1032] worker [1046] timeout kill it Additional info... Code:
lspci Code:
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules Problem is essentially the same with huge or generic kernels. Any help appreciated! [EDIT] The ipw2200 module is loading and the device is accessible via ifconfig after boot (I do not use it so have not configured it). [/EDIT] |

I have the same issue here. Also with the wifi controller, although this is a Broadcom BCM43225 (driver is brcmsmac). It has been reported several times here in previous threads. IIRC, it can be avoided by hand-loading the kernel module before udevd tries to do it. For the moment I just reverted to udev-165 (from 13.37) which works fine on my PC Phil |
I had the same problem...
Also thought i915 was the problem and it was brcmsmac driver... To solve it I blacklisted the brcmsmac driver on udev and loaded it in rc.local. |
Another workaround is to create initrd with that particular module. Udev will throw few warnings/errors, but as far as I tried, they are harmless. At least it works for my ipw2200 wireless module.

Fixed for now by adding ipw2200 to my initrd.
I was hoping to understand the "why" a little better, but no time today. Anyone know of a good, useful overview of udev and the rules files? Thanks to all who replied! |
Don't know why, but adding the brcmsmac didn't solved mine when I tried before. The module wouldn't load automatically and I had to add it manually if I had it on initrd.
The udev problem in my case seems to be with CRDA, but this is just a guess... |

If someone else finds the same problem and step into this thread, just believe philanc and do a search to find detailes in this forum about cause and cure. |

It might well be due to my own slow rate of understanding the obvious, but I did not find a useful cause/cure for it here. |

My horizons are expanded, if not my actual gray matter!
Read yenn's link to learn why it broke from older behavior. I have often read refs to "reverting to udev-xxx" and it always made me ask, "But WHY?". Quote:
