Subject: Boot hang after io scheduler registration

Hi,

I have a somewhat weird hang problem when booting all recent kernel
versions including 2.6.28: When I boot my system and let grub start the
kernel after a 5 second timeout, the system will hang after registering
the io schedulers (see below). However, when I choose the default grub
entry manually by pressing ENTER in the menu, the kernel does not hang
and continues the normal booting process.

Below, you can find the place of the hang and an excerpt of the messages
that follow on a normal boot as well as some system information.

Thanks for your time on this problem.

Best regards
Kai

# dmesg
...
[    0.309379] io scheduler noop registered
[    0.309473] io scheduler anticipatory registered
[    0.309569] io scheduler deadline registered
[    0.309679] io scheduler cfq registered (default)

Hang happens here.

Continuation when pressing ENTER in grub:
