Comment 17 for bug 89892

I confirm the workaround by Jeffrey for Feisty (kernel 2.6.20-16-generic). My laptop is a HP Omnibook 6100.
By moving the file intel-rng.ko to some other directory invisible to the bootup, my laptop now boots smoothly. I tried 4 times without problems.

I wonder whether removing the file is harmful in some other way. I hope not :-)

Thanks for positing the workaround!
