Trying using the release candidate again. The logs are the result after making all system updates, and then trying to boot.
When trying to boot normally, only "ro" kernel option. The same thing as always happens. The kernel text appears. Then X starts and the loading screen appears. Then the system just restarts after 2-3 seconds. see http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34489124/k64-rc-updated.tar.gz.tar.gz When using "ro single" kernel options and then just choosing to resume at the recovery menu, logging in, and then running "startx", it works. i.e the desktop appears and is functional. see http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34489046/k64-rc-updated.via-single.tar.gz Surprisingly, if I use the ISO dated 2009-10-26 20:31 from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ with hash 1745d887a4ee25daa3ca3ca8bfef56ee0117c28409a9ceb2c7acf23ed864ff47 the above is the same, except that HAL appears to fail ("config/hal: couldn't initialise context: unknown error (null)"). mouse/keyboard does not work. No updates available either. -- karmic release candidate fails to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458676 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
