+ What is the manufacturer and model of the PCIe WiFi adapter?

This is stated in the bug's title but it is an "ASUS PCE-N10".  Were you
looking for something more specific?

+ Did this problem not occur in a release prior to Precise?

I pulled my hard drive out of my old computer and put it in my new one.
I didn't try it with anything older than Precise.  Do you want me to try
it with an older release?


Maybe I should try booting Windows or another distro?

Title:
  [ASRock X79 Extreme6] Booting fails with ASUS PCE-N10 wireless n PCIe
  adaptor.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When booting off the live CD for ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso,
  ubuntu-12.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso, ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso and a
  desktop installation of Ubuntu 12.04.3 AMD64, the computer failed to
  start when initializing the cfg80211 module.  I know the wireless card
  is related to the failure because removing the card causes the machine
  to boot.  Also, when booting with the ignore_loglevel option, booting
  frequently fails near messages about the cfg80211 module.  I attached
  a screen shot of where the system halted when loading ubuntu-13.04
  -desktop-amd64.iso with the ingore_loglevel option enabled. I know
  this wireless card normally works on Precise because I used it on the
  same install with different hardware. The apport-collect is for my
  current Precise install obviously without the wireless adapter.
