Hi hermanningjaldsson, Based on your last comment it seems this is now resolved. It's appears the filesystem on you usb stick was corrupted so running the dosfsck resolved this. I'll go ahead and close this report. Thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid --

Hi hermanningljaldsson, First, I'm going to reassign this to the linux kernel package as this seems to be a kernel issue. Even before you insert the usbstick I'm seeing a flood of "APIC error on CPU0: 40(40)" errors in you dmesg output. I've seen a few of these types of reports before and they w
