[W3ird_N3rd <360378@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just installed an old box with Asus CUSL2-C (i815) and Lubuntu 14.04
(trusty). Occasionally get the busybootblows, but not always. Just
randomly, 2 times out of 3 maybe.

Turning "plug and play OS" in BIOS on or off makes no difference
Adding "noapic" after quiet splash in /etc/default/grub makes no difference
Neither does noacpi
Neither does rootdelay=15

The device it can't mount is the partition that holds /.
