| [13:37] <scotty^> Is anybody else unable to boot Natty alpha 2? | |
| [13:38] <scotty^> I'm using the 32 bit version, but that probably doesn't matter. | |
| [13:38] <blahdeblah> I am, but that's probably because i haven't got it installed... ;-) | |
| [13:39] <scotty^> You're using the LiveCD too? | |
| [13:39] <ikt> scotty^, yeah | |
| [13:39] <ikt> what issue are you having? | |
| [13:39] <scotty^> crash before login screen | |
| [13:40] <ikt> after you've installed or before it even loads up the try ubuntu vs install ubuntu screen? | |
| [13:41] <blahdeblah> I haven't even downloaded it. So it stands to reason i can't boot it. ;-) | |
| [13:41] <scotty^> oops, I meant before it loads up the try ubuntu vs install ubuntu screen. I forgot that there is no login screen on the LiveCD! :) | |
| [13:41] <scotty^> lol blahdeblash | |
| [13:42] <ikt> most likely this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/712082 | |

| [13:45] <scotty^> My monitor has bad EDID. It's always been a bit hit and miss booting or logging in on both Lucid and Maverick. Booting with the monitor powered off helps but is still not 100% reliable. And changing to a different resolution after logging in is a bit hit and miss too, particularly on Maverick. Often causes a crash. But I don't think that is what is happening here as the crash occurs much earlier in the boot process. | |
| [13:46] <ikt> yeah | |
| [13:46] <scotty^> And I caught some rapidly scrolling msg about sys\devices\pci......\usb....... on repeated attempts | |
| [13:46] <ikt> imo give virtualbox a go | |
| [13:46] <scotty^> (on Natty) | |
| [13:47] <scotty^> and it was very slow | |
| [13:48] <ikt> probably a bug | |
| [13:48] <ikt> natty is really quite buggy atm | |
| [13:48] <ikt> which is fun for me :D but not so much other people :s | |
| [13:50] <scotty^> Removing my USB flash drive and then booting Natty with the monitor powered off and waiting for a long time and then powering on the monitor showed a different set of kernel messages, with the last one being about kernel thread helper. Then it was just stuck - I couldn't even CTRL-ALT-DEL, which did work on during the rapidly scrolling msg about sys\devices\pci......\usb....... | |
| [13:50] <scotty^> Anyway I'll check bug 712082 - thanks for the link | |
