I was able to boot into the "linux rescue" mode and did more /proc/interrupts
and Irq 7,10 and 11 are ehci_hcd.
What is going on with the USB that it will not boot in normal mode?
Install booted and installed normally, linux rescue booted (although I still
saw messages about disabling IRQ #11). I see that same message on a normal
boot but it never continues after that...
Any ideas, why USB is stopping this laptop from booting?
