[Bug 612010] Re: GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot
Looks like it's a BIOS glitch, not a bug in GRUB. Although Windows XP is no longer on this netbook - it only runs Lubuntu now :) - after you had booted up Windows XP and booted up Ubuntu or vice-versa, after the extra reboot which would happen, the BIOS summery screen would say something like "Update Success", if you removed the Samsung logo from the BIOS boot screen. It seems to be a buggy BIOS rather than GRUB. I did update the BIOS (which could only be done within Windows XP) and no further updates to the BIOS have been released since then.

[Bug 612010] Re: GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot
I had this problem on the NB30 with win XP and Mint. It also hosed the splash screen making recovery and bios access impossible. Eventually all i got was avlack screen and a flashing cursor with no HD activity. This bug is only coming to light now as the circulation of this machine is starting to expand.

Update: GRUB seems to be problematic here if you boot up one operating system and then boot up another next time. If you ONLY boot up Ubuntu or Windows XP every time, neither one gets rebooted on a cold boot. -- GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/612010 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
[Bug 612010] Re: GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot
I've tried following the instructions provided by Omer Akram, but having no luck, as per comment #5. Since GRUB now loads Windows XP or Ubuntu Netbook Edition, both operating systems nearly always reboot straight away on the first attempt, then boot up fine. When I only had Windows XP installed, I never had any problems with it rebooting the computer straight away on startup. Is there anything else I can do to help you find out what's causing this and help make a bugfix available to everyone who may be affected by this same problem? -- GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/612010 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

Thanks. How do I "apport collect 612010" - I don't understand what that means??
