I have done some further investigation on this issue: While using the Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD if I stop services:
sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd stop sudo /etc/init.d/acpid stop sudo /etc/init.d/acpi-support stop the system will restart normally. After fresh install and updates if I stop service: sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd stop the system will restart normally. I then have to: sudo update-rc.d -f powernowd remove in order to be able to restart normally. This process also seems to occur in Intrepid. -- System will not POST after reboot since version 7.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306403 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
