Hi, I am also getting similar traces on boot, not every time. The
following is from a fresh net install on a ProLiant DL380 G7.

  Here the system hangs, i. e. it does not respond to console input, and
  it cannot be reached over the network (though the interfces are up,
  they can be pinged).

  The problem happens in about 3 out of 4 boot attempts; sometimes the
  system continues to boot - in this case we see this:
