Bug Description

[OCPv2 Windmill]: Can't install Raring or Saucy.

I tried the latest daily saucy image with 3.10.0-6.17 and after installation the machine first fails to establish a network connection. NIC is plugged in and used to perform PXE boot. Then it proceeds to hang (during first boot after install) and stop responding to any keyboard actions. Can't switch tty etc.

When loading the desktop, there is no indication that network -manager found any suitable physical network devices. I was unable to check whether the NIC interface was present in the /sys due to system halt and unresponsive keyboard.

With precise and stock 3.5.0-23 kernel the installation and boot is successful, but installing any kernel above 3.8 in precise fails to boot successfully.

Update:

So I was able to get Raring to boot successfully after a power reset and second attempt at booting. Retrying Saucy while attempting to blacklist mei.

However I'm fairly certain we still have an issue with network connections with Saucy and this Windmill's Intel NICS.
