You have been subscribed to a public bug: after upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic alpha4 the boot process hangs. I am able to see the usplash, the bar progress until is almost finished and then the system switch to a terminal-like screen (that give details of the booting process). The two last sentences are (and the system hangs)
Running DKMS autoinstallation service for kernel 2.6.31.6-generic [OK] Starting Samba demon. (something similar) At fist I believe the problem was samba so I uninstall it (using ALT-F2 i was able get access to a terminal), I reboot and get this message (and the system hangs) Running DKMS autoinstallation service for kernel 2.6.31.6-generic [OK] Starting Winbid demon. (something similar) A workaround is boot in recovery mode, then choose netroot. exit netroot and select resume normal mode. Note: when the systems hangs I wait only for couple of minutes and then reboot. (the keyboard is fully responsive may be if i wait a couple of minutes more the system could continue to boot, I will let you know) Obviously i don´t get any idea about the soruce of this problem or why the workaround works... I have a vostro 1400, Intel 965 GMA and I´m running the amd64 version. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- karmic hangs during booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
