Public bug reported: Ubuntu 8.10, This was not a problem in 8.04 During the boot process, just after the orange bar appears that bounces from side to side the system will pause. The only way I've found so far to unpause is by pressing and holding the spacebar. If I press the spacebar and release it will advance the boot process slightly but when I press and hold it the boot up continues as normal.
The happened during the boot up of the 8.10 live CD also, After all updates are done, even backports and proposed, the pause is still there. I have a compaq presario f700 series laptop, and there are others with this same issue, see thread; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=967679 The common link seems to be they are all HP/compaq laptops. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- boot-up hangs at multiple stages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330353 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
