hi, i tried exactly as described and changed to text mode.
i have a few lines that boot, but quickly the screen turns black, and nothing more happens. it was too quick to take a picture, but the screen went black after something like "system 00:01: Plug and Play ACPI device, IDs PNP0c02 (active)" (not exactly this line, i took it from syslog from the working kernel). Anyway it was a message about PnP cards discovering. No error messages happened after, just a black screen and time passing by. thanks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/813544 Title: new kernel won't boot on iMac To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/813544/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
