I see a lot of activity on this subject and as an end user I am going to try 13.10 now since 14.04 failed to install on a clean machine. If I have to go through all the extra trouble to install this version on a clean machine then what is the point of installing it to begin with. It has been years since I have used linux and back then my preference was Red Hat but I wanted to get back into linux again and after reading several posts Ubuntu was ranked high.
My process: Installed from a USB drive. I followed the instructions for creating the USB drive directly from the Ubuntu web site. The installation process was painful. I kept getting an error with nothing but "?"'s repeated. Finally got the install to work only to reboot to a black screen which led me here. I can't say for sure if it is a bug or not but it is a pain to me. My system: Intel Server Board S2600GZ RAID array: 2 drives mirrored Dual Xeon quad core proc. 64 GB RAM If 13.10 doesn't work I will move to another distro for testing purposes. I hope this was of some help to someone and if not, my apologies for wasting space on here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289977 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1289977/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
