I have the same issue, can not boot Ubuntu 11.10. I am using USB bootable drive. The USB drive works on other Toshiba PC. I have HP Pavilion a1320n desktop PC.
It start booting, but getting the following error: ] ACPI: Core revision 20110413 ] trace: allocating 24885 entries in 49 pages ] Enabling APIC mode: Flat using 1ICO APICS ] .. TIMER: vector=0 x 30 apic=0 pin1=0 apic2=-1 pin2=-1 ] .. MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected ] ... trying to set up timer (IRQ0) throught the 8259(A) ... ] .... (found apic 0 pin0 ) .... ] ....... failed. ] ... trying to set up timer as EXTINT IRQ ] ....... failed ] Kernal panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work? Boot with apic=debug and send report. Then try booting with noapic option. Why it can not access Timer? How to boot with noapic option? Help would be appropriated.
