Public bug reported:
I am trying to install 8.04 to a system with a Asus A8N SLi premium motherboard - AMD 64 x2 . The machine is running XP at the moment. The install fails at initramfs, with a cycle trying to access the cd. it doesnt go on to - SRST Failed I have tried 8.04 (AMD64 and 386 ) I have tired Intrepid Ibex 8.10 (alpha4) I have tried updating to the latest bios 1013. I have tried 'all_generic_ide' , floppy off and pci=nomsi The install mostly fails and drops to initramfs. If I use all_generic_ide at F6 I get to the HH background with all packages installed ok and then a window headed install which then freezes.mouse is working. I am not sure how to log the install report. If I delete quiet splash at F6 I get some reports of hardware problem whizzing by when I don't use 'all_generic_ide' . ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- HH install stalls at initramfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262944 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
