I had some trouble with my Feisty installation, 'cause it didn't boot the generic kernel. I have a Pentium D930, and I really didn't want to use just one core, so i downgraded to dapper.
Once I installed Dapper (on 100GB unpartitioned disk space) i wanted to upgrade to edgy. As far as i knew my edgy distribution worked fine before upgrading to feisty, so i did the upgrade. I tried booting my generic kernel, and it didn't, i dropped all the timo to busybox, like my feisty install. then i found this bugreport https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/67256 thanks to this, edgy booted. i had the misterious feeling that the same command could help booting feisty... even if it wasn't the same error. i tried doing the same on feisty: $ sudo update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.20-15-generic and after rebooting everything worked fine! try it out and report... maybe all this trouble isn't because of SATA problems but 'cause of initrd images! ----- Hardware: Pentium D930 Asus P5WD2-E Premium X975 Intel Chipset 1GB DDR2 800MHz Ram -- Feisty boot fail "can't access tty" IDE SATA problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106864 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
