Thanks Steve, Then we must conclude that booting the old HP computers is flaky with the current Groovy iso files. Let us hope that Thomas can help us with another tweak. Otherwise I think that these old HP computers will be left behind at least in Groovy. -o- There is evidence that some old Dells might also be affected by this bug. See this link by kansasnoob https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2447379&page=3&p=13992621#post13992621 --- Neither Latitude E6400's nor an E6510 will even recognize the image on USB. The E6400's are C2D (both P series and T series cpu's fail), and the E6510 has an i7 M620. I've tried creating the live USB's both with Focal's startup disc creator and uNetbootin - no dice! I'll try a DVD tomorrow as time allows. Prior images work fine so it's not hardware settings - usually you just press F12 repeatedly to display the one time boot menu and select USB, but in this case no USB appears to be found. --- -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1899308 Title: failure to boot groovy daily (again) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1899308/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
