Similar problems here. I always get the message on Ubuntu 10.04. I only started noticing it about a month ago, thus my guess is that it wasn't there previously. Also I get the error message all the time, but everything seems to work fine.
On Ubuntu 10.10 (amd64) the error seems to be the reason why the installation does not start. I only see the "Ubuntu boot dots" running. After a while the error message is displayed, before the dots continue running. -- 10.04, 10.10: fails to boot with kernel panic and getpwuid failed message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574596 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
