[Bug 58358] Re: Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel
Just finished putting together a new computer. Everything powers up and I load the Ubuntu6. CD and tell it to do the normal install and it gets so far and then it takes me to a black screen and all it says is: Uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel. And it just stays stuck there forever. Other things to consider if it helps. It's an SONY SATA DVD-REWRITER, also tried booting with Knoppix and with no luck. I tried installing Windows XP and that worked seemingly fine (Maybe this fact rules out a hardware defect?) Please, please help! I really want my new ubuntu computer to work.

Even if it doesn't make its way out of the proposed repos, you can do a hd-install as said for edgy at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=316093 Make sure you get the initrd.gz and vmlinuz images for feisty from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ The edgy files may not work for feisty. -- Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ...

I'll just attach it in a file here. I hope that's what you wanted.

By the way, that output is from running those commands just now. So keep in mind that I currently am using and IDE to SATA converter for my dvd rom, and nothing is plugged into the IDE place.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Murray, thanks for asking. I ended up connecting my IDE CD ROM drive to SATA controller using a converter and that works now. But this bug is still at large AFAIK! It's the same bug as reported here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support#head-27e09d1c217dbb49ac347ade4a3f1f62e274e99a It would be really nice to get this fixed in Fiesty. -- Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ...

Ditto for me also. Intel D946GZis motherboard, Intel Pentium 4 processor, 2x Kingston 512 MB RAM. I was able to install using the ACPI=OFF option, but then rebooting seemed unreliable and GDM didn't work. I'm going to try Edgy, but this machine is going to be a server and first choice was to stay with Dapper. -- Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ...

[Bug 58358] Re: Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ... Ok, booting the kernel
Is there an Ubuntu bug FAQ where I can find out kind of what happens after a bug is submitted, how it gets confirmed and assigned, how long it takes to get fixed, etc? Also I'd like to make this critical status but I can't seem to change it. I feel it's critical because it prevents people from installing Ubuntu. -- Installer (Live CD) Stuck at Uncompressing Linux ...

Ok, booting the kernel. And it just stays stuck there forever. Other things to consider if it helps. It's an IDE DVD-ROM, I tried two different brands and I tried each of them as master, slave, cable select, and the various cable positions and it made no difference.
