My Ubuntu PC has been flakey lately.
I booted it up after maybe two months and I only got a grey screen after
the system started.
So I reinstalled everything, it worked, it confirmed to upgrade to 9.10
and I accepted.
Now it does not boot at all. Well it boots but then ABEND's.
I saw a message about video flash by, so I searched the Web for info on
my monitor got a suggestion about adding "i915.modeset=0" to the kernel
line of the boot up process and within the grub menu list file.
When I rebooted the video message was replaced by one about waiting for
a device. I thought it did not like the mount point I made to the WinXP
PC so I managed to get into a command line and restore the original
version - thank god for a backup file!
But the reboot gave the same thing, waiting for a device. I only see
this message if I interrupt the boot process and get into the 'recovery'
mode boot up and let it run single lines (I think that is what I did).
I found an Ubuntu blog which described my exact issue but the page did
not help.

Are there any suggestions from the group?
