I get a similar problem. Ubuntu 6.10 worked once, and other versions that I got in a book, but I wanted a later version so I tried to install 7.10. I am sort of new to Linux but I have used other Unix systems in a simple way (find something that works and use it to to develop software). I re-partitioned 3 disks and could probably use an older version or Suse but I wanted to use Ubuntu. I have an Intel processor.
I have programmed for a long time but am new to Linux. I get initramfs ata2.01 exception emask 0x0 SAct 0X0 Serr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen. -- Boot fails with 2.6.24-4 with initramfs error on hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183428 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
