[Bug 1237336] Re: linux-image-3.11.0-12-generic doesn't boot

 

So I'm digging through the CHANGELOGS between the mainline kernels
3.8.13.8 and 3.11.3 (which correspond to the mainline kernels for the
working and broken kernel).

There's only two kernels with changes to PCMCIA (which strikes me as
odd, but hey), and both contain the SAME change:

    Commit 80af9e6d (pcmcia at91_cf: fix raw gpio number usage) forgot
    to change the parameter in gpio_get_value after adding gpio
    validation.

Title:
  linux-image-3.11.0-12-generic doesn't boot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I made a fresh install of Ubuntu Ringtail and Upgraded to Saucy.

  Turns out that the machine won't boot with linux-image-3.11.0-12-generic, but *will* boot with the old ringtail kernel
  linux-image-3.8.0-31-generic!

  I created two screenshots, one shows the point where the boot process
  with the Saucy kernel stops (after enabling the swap), and another
  picture of the boot process with the ringtail kernel AFTER
  successfully enabling the swap.

  This bug report was generated on 3.8.0-31, since I can't get 3.11 to
  boot...
