** Description changed:

  I was lucky enough to get a 4-socket Sandy Bridge (Xeon E5-4600 series)
  box, but unfortunately the default install of 12.04 hangs during boot
  while loading the sb_edac module.  This is due to a bug in
  drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, as of now not yet fixed in upstream.  However I
  sent the small fix: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/31/371
  
- I would suggest pulling this fix into the Ubuntu 3.2 tree as the
- consequences are pretty severe: the box won't boot after install without
- some manual monkeying to add a blacklist of the sb_edac module to the
- modprobe config.
+ WORKAROUND: Blacklist sb_edac .
