Emirates tech problems to PER

The Emirates flight this Sat arrived in PER 7 hrs late (flight EK 420). According to those on the flight, taxi out from Dubai was normal, before the captain announced at the end of the runway before departure that the aircraft could not depart due to technical problems. The aircraft in question was then grounded, whilst annoyed passangers waited 7 hrs for a replacement. Anyone any ideas what the problem was? Crew seemed fairly reluctant to give a reasonable answer, or really didn't care?? Anyone out there have the reason for the delay? Replies gratefully recieved.
