Public bug reported: My system is an HP 530, dualbooting Windows Vista and Ubuntu 8.04 (8.04.1?), all recently installed.
This was installed in the following order: 1. Vista, creating the NTFS partition with the Vista installer, leaving 10 GB of space on the hd. 2. Ubuntu, creating an ext3 and a swap partition of 9 GB and 1 GB with the live CD installer (8.04.1? ISO was downloaded a few days ago) The problem is a long delay, showing "Waiting for root file system..." (when boot text is enabled). The HD is a SATA drive, running in native mode (I believe). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- "Waiting for root file system" delay https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247717 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
