Hi

I get the same symptoms, ie hanging at 'loading hardware drivers' for a while, and 'Configuring the network'.
I have a Prism II card (BENQ AWL100) which has always been recoqnised and worked fine with the orinoco driver.

But in addition, I always get an error on eth1 (yes, I dont know why it shows it as eth1, when earlier in the boot its wlan0), its
eth1 ; invalid skb-> cb magic (0x00000000, expected 0x08a36a2).

I've no idea what this means.

This has been going on for longer ie, probably last 6-8 weeks, always broken.

I can post log if that will help. after all, prism II cards must still be quite popular ...
