OK

Investigated a little furher.

When I unplug my Philips webcam and my iiyama USB hub (built in into my 
19" crt monitor), it boots. It also boots with no USB devices attached 
at all. When it's booted, and I replugin back everything, the system 
behaves normally, no lockups whatsoever. It only seems to happen with 
either the webcam or the hub attached. Is there a maximum number of USB 
devices allowed during bootup in the 3.0 kernel?

If not, I think I'm best of send-pr'ing this.

mvg,

Wouter
