Probable FiX.......... problem: My ubuntu 14.04 installer restarted when i clicked install along side windows. after some research i wanted to check it i could reproduce it in 12.04, and yes my installer restarted when i clicked install along side windows. I think it is the same case with Linux Mint 16 as sangeet khatri reported.
Solution: Ubuntu does not support dynamic disks, please recheck if ur disk is dynamic, and convert it to basic disk. to minimise data loss, i created a new ext 4 partition with gparted and installed ubuntu 14.04 there.(gparted only makes Basic disks). grub was not installed. so i reinstalled the grub using live cd. I am posting this from my new ubuntu 14.04..... ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309578 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 suddenly reboots when booting from Live USB AMD A8 6600k To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1309578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
