Thanks for getting back. The system hangs up while booting from a CD, DVD or from a USB stick. I never get any kind of splash screen, except for a brief view of a maroonish background with two icons at the bottom. It isn't there long enough for me to see what they are. After that, a black screen (not even a mouse pointer) and nothing. I've waited as long as 20 minutes with the black screen, and there is no further activity there, and no further blinking drive lights.
I may try starting over with version 10.4 and see if that works. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil.

From your report it is a little unclear to me how the bug manifests itself and I'm thus having difficulty assigning a package, though it sounds like the kernel is probably at fault. Forgetting the wubi problem for a moment, do you experience the hang while booting into the LiveCD, or after you successfully install the system and reboot? If it occurs after you install the system and reboot, are you able to get to the splash screen and/or the login screen? Again, if this occurs after installing and rebooting, can you boot safely by selecting the "recovery mode" of the kernel from GRUB? ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/894131 Title: CD for 11.1 locks up Status in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I created a DVD for Ubuntu 11.1 using InfraRecorder (twice!) During reboot, I get a brief flash screen and then the screen goes black and the system hangs up. No mouse pointer, no image and not even the DVD will eject. I then installed 11.1 to run inside Windows from the Wubi. exe screen. On reboot, the same thing happens.
