Bug Description
This seems similar to the issues in bug 352197, I just don't know which one is closest, or bug 270794, bug 286380, bug 103780.
Sometimes the machine continues after having a ~30 seconds break with the HD lamp constantly lit. Sometimes the lamp goes off again but the machine is still hung.
I have also tried blacklisting the tg3 and ipw2200 network drivers, since it often hangs just after loading or dealing with these. Which is also just at the time gdm is starting (some people reported the readahead stresses the disk).
The number of similar reports makes me optimistic it is not the hard drive dying, but I can not be sure I guess.

Forgot to say I have been seeing this for a while (several releases) but it is worse now. I don't know if it is because I now use ext4 or radeon KMS, or 2.6.31.
