You have been subscribed to a public bug: Ubuntu Vivid using stock install, no additional configs, on a dual boot (Ubuntu + Win7)
When booting, my laptop will sometimes boot successfully, sometimes not, and sometimes, will reboot. Using CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to terminal shows me a console flood for Nouveau (sometimes) and sometimes not. Sometimes I see messages about firmware not being used/installed. I cannot reliably replicate this problem, but I have had similar problems running Fedora on this machine with similar console floods, which points further up to the upstream kernel. I suspect it is a race condition, as if I can see the console flood, the laptop often boots successfully, but if I don't I either get a kernel panic or a self-reboot. Can provide more information/HW details if needed (but not at the machine right now) ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- Suspected Race Condition on boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506845 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
