Manoj Lyer: Please take a look at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/302644 and make
sure you are not seeing the same problem.

Not the same issue.

Manoj Lyer: What do you see when you try to boot a 8.04 liveCD on Dell
Optiplex 960? Can you please post what exactly you see when you boot.?
Please attach lspci -vvnn , dmesg and any log files that are relevant.

The CD menu loads without a problem and the language options appear.
After selecting  the live option the screen goes black for a short
period then BusyBox v1.1.3 prompt comes up (loading off initramfs). As
such most of the requested logs are unavailable. I will however be
attaching the results when run off a 8.10 installation (which will not
help with dmesg output at all).

Taking a ghost image off another 8.04 configured machine has the same
results on boot. However if it is booted on an 8.10 live CD, then have
the kernel updated on the local machines off the intrepid repository
(including backports modules) the installation will successfully boot.
This however causes other issues and as a result we deployed a 8.10
image as a temporary measure.

As said before, I believe its likely to be cause by the SATA3 controller
which it appears the GX960's have.
