Recreated this today with 10.10 using essentially the same steps Jean- Baptiste used with one exception (I used do-release-upgrade -d instead of Update Manager).
After upgrading, I get the same issue, though on my system (a compaq presario w. Athlon II) I just get a hard lock, not a reset. but I get exactly the same messages and fail point. -- Can't boot Ubuntu after an upgrade from 10.04.1 to 10.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653134 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
