[Bug 50002] Re: install crash

2013-05-12 Thread norbie

I just don't understand, how it can be fixed if it isn't! This problem still exists into the latest release 11.10. Why it suddenly has a problem after release upgrade seems to be a mystery! There are a lot of proposed workarounds, but non of them has brought my eth0 back alive on boot.

I have seen in many previous posts that the BUG was fixed and the issue was closed. In the contrary this one here seems to be relatively fresh/alive and does not suggest that BUG was killed. Although, relatively recent, I have encountered the same problem that exists now for more than 5 years.

Hi, no the time sync. is enabled, however that may only occur once a week. If you switch between the operating systems, LINUX will set the RTC to UTC, while Windows does not check if the time zone is UTC or any of the others. Perhaps it does, but it will run with zero offset from UTC. In any case

Hi Charlie, did I report a Bug recently or is this an existing issue way back when. If it was reported recently, then it wasn't me that did. I did, however have an issue several month ago with XUBUNTU 8.04 as I tried to install it onto an existing Win XP system. Since the partition was an NTFS

Here is my two cents: I had a XP installation working just fine. When I decided to create a dual boot system with XUBUNTU (I am not too familiar with the release number) it turned out to be a bad decision. The XP installation had their latest Service Pack #3 and the Hard drive was formatted in
