Comment # 2 on bug 1206683 from Dave Plater

Mine mostly freezes at the point that X display loads. I managed to complete a
boot in steps via levels one then three then it continued to level 5 and
plasma5 UI. I'm writing this after booting with the previous 6.0.12 kernel

I have an hp pavilion with generation 6 intel chipset :
