** Summary changed: - After upgrading from breezy, the system will not boot + Since Dapper pre-releases USB-related problem with booting
** Description changed: Binary package hint: initramfs-tools - - Marc - Is the bug mentioned by vijay (bug 30333) the same bug that you reported in - bug 43950?? - If so, I think we need to start a fresh bug report and have you two - describe your problem as best you can... I was running breezy without any problem, just perfect. - Trying to load dapper flight7 from a live-CD, it stops and freezes defnetly on "mounting root file system". - Upgrading from breezy to dapper via upgrade-manager, it works perfectly till rebooting system where it stops and freezes defnetly on "mounting root file system". - booting from live-CD but removing "quiet and splash" from F6 command-line: it works and starts live-CD. Dapper works, installed in RAM, but installing on hd, it starts till creating partitions: ERROR, not able to create partitions! So dapperflight7 is not able to "mount root file system" and not able to create the necessary partitions hda1 (/) and hda5 (swap), even they are present on the hd from previous breezy installation! - I found that disconnecting the memorycard reader Icybox during boot session makes ubuntu start well, without problem. Hotplugging it afterwords, it works well. So that means, with my poor experience, that there should be no problem with kernel but rather in booting session, booting script...? Something changed since breezy? The problem occurs only during boot session and probably is related with USB - The problem is still alife booting with ubuntu 6.10: freeze on "mounting root file system" + The problem still exists booting with ubuntu 6.10: freeze on "mounting root file system" System runs well with Windows XP.
