Thanks for describing the issue further, I'll file this against the kernel as that is the appropriate package for issues booting into the LiveCD. Please do try to boot into the 10.04 CD and post back regarding the outcome of that. The kernel team should give you more instructions as well now that this is packaged. One thing though, I'm fairly sure this isn't the problem since this occurs with a wubi install as well, but did you verify the integrity of the cd image before you made your LiveCD's? If you're unfamiliar with getting an MD5 sum, instructions can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Description changed: 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. + 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 then installed 11.1 to run inside Windows from the Wubi. exe screen. On reboot, the same thing happens. This is an older machine running WXP(SP3) ** Summary changed: - CD for 11.1 locks up + Problem booting 11.10 LiveCD -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/894131 Title: Problem booting 11.10 LiveCD To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/894131/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
