I have tried to fix it but i had'nt get any answer to my last question how i can add a memory reservation if a H12Y was detected at boot.

[Bug 484419] Re: kernel fails to boot without special parameters on Philips Freevents X55 (Twinhead H12Y)
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: All Twinhead H12Y based laptops (such as Philips Freevents X55) have a BIOS bug where some yet unknown device has memory that should not be touched but the memory is not reserved by the BIOS. The problem manifests itself as hard freeze after loading memory card reader. Other problematic devices on this bios are network adapter and firewire adapter. A workaround that allows installing i386 Ubuntu on this laptop is adding a special kernel parameter: reserve=0xffb0,0x10 I'm opening this bug as a feature request to automatically detect this broken bios and apply the required magic by default.

Executed $ apport-collect -p linux 484419 with 32 bit live cd started with reserve=0xffb0,0x10 kernel flag. System fails to boot if this flag is not used and the last kernel message displayed is mc0: Unknown controller version (16).

The last time I checked (2010-03-22, see above comment) both 32 bit and 64 bit versions failed to boot without the additional kernel paramter reserve=0xffb0,0x10 I'll try to test again later this week with the lucid RC and provide the additional details.

[Bug 484419] Re: kernel fails to boot without special parameters on Philips Freevents X55 (Twinhead H12Y)
Hi Mikko, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 484419 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kj-triage ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- kernel fails to boot without special parameters on Philips Freevents X55 (Twinhead H12Y) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/484419 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

Since the bug 370003 has been fixed, it's possible to use 64 Ubuntu, too.

Thank you so much for this workaround! I`ve been browsing the internet for ages looking for a solution to my problem. I got a bitway h12y notebook which wouldn`t boot up however on virtualbox everything seemed ok. I`m emailing the notebook`s manufacturer now about this workaround.
