Ricardisimo: Updating to grub2 was a one-time fix for me when I tried it a couple months ago. After a second try, ubuntu once again was failing to boot. However, with the Lucid release this issue seems to had some more attention from other people new to ubuntu installing it, and coincidentally I

I have discovered that I still had grub - and not grub2 - installed on my system for some reason (shouldn't this have updated automatically?) after following the instructions in the grub2 wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 ... all is goodness and light. I hope this can help you as well, jetsetle

Well, as expected, that lasted exactly two bootings. The problem is back, and no one here is responding. As far as I am concerned this is a dead thread. feel free to close. I'm going to file a new bug under the kernel, rather than usplash. Clearly nobody here knows or cares what's going on here. Ta

There was a linux-firmware update today that seemed like it might be pertinent to this issue. After updating, I switched my menu.list to "0" for the default kernel, which is to say the newest one instead of 2.6.31.14. Then I rebooted - twice. So far so good. I have my doubts about how permanent thi

So, two weeks have gone by, and not only has the problem not corrected itself, but also, amazingly, not one other person on the entire planet can even post a simple "hello" within this thread. I have to say, it's getting to be pretty puzzling. I see a list of over fifty names in the right sidebar,

Very little to report, but here it is: Just before the latest kernel upgrade, I was able to get 2.6.31.17 to load normally. Then, 2.6.31-19-generic came along and was also working perfectly... for less than a week. I have no idea what change allowed the newer kernels to start up, nor what subseque

Hello? Once again, I'd like to know if anyone is ever going to respond to this. If not, that's fine, but I'd just like to know. Also, at some point, if I can't upgrade past kernel 2.6.31.14, then I am slowly and steadily getting handicapped. Should I also start looking at reloading Windows, like t

Something - and I don't know what - changed the the "default num" in my menu.lst. I had set it to 4, so that 2.6.31.14 would always load, and it was changed back to 0 at some point, by one or another update, I have to assume. As I described, the newer kernels will not load.

It would be nice if you could check to see if linux-image 2.6.31.14 works properly for you as well, no? Hopefully that would kind of narrow some possibilities. Being neither a programmer nor hacker, I have no clue myself. Thanks for replying... at least I know this thread is actually working. :) -

So, I've tried it a few more times, and so far 2.6.31-14 is loading properly every time, and 2.6.31-15 fails almost every time. I say "almost" because it loaded at least a few times since this kernel was installed, but not at all over the past few days. Thanks again for your attention to this. --
