[CentOS] Server hangs initializing audio

[Paul Malinowski]

Bowie,

I had the same problem yesterday on my laptop with SIS5513 chipset. I've
tried acpi=off and nomodprobe - didn't help

I will come back to that problem when I will have time, but what I will
do is disabling hardware initialization in default init level, and then
I will try to play with audio module manually. You might do the same...

Boot up from some live cd ubuntu works fine (I'm running it on the same
laptop right now) and change init scripts.

Paul

Subject: [CentOS] Server hangs initializing audio

I have a server that frequently hangs while rebooting.  I see no
errors, but during the boot process it stops at this stage:

    Initializing hardware... storage network audio

The cursor sits just after the word "audio" and I have to do a hard
reset to get out of it.  This server has no audio capabilities, so I
am thinking that I just need to disable the audio stuff so it doesn't
even try to load it, but I don't know where to look.
