Hello everybody, I am also currently experiencing problems with Ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop PC.
My PC configuration is as follows: Motherboard: Asus P5VD2-MX CPU: Pentium D 820 2.8 GHz RAM: 2 x 1GB Kingmax (not dual-channel, MB does not support it) Video: GeForce 9600GT HDD: 1 WD 250GB P-ATA (IDE) & 1 Seagate 320GB S-ATA (My Ubuntu OS is installed on WD) DVD writer: Samsung SH-S182D Further details can be found in the attachment. In november 2007 I installed Ubuntu 7.10. Since then, I have been upgrading with every new stable release of Ubuntu. Currently I am running the latest (Ubuntu 9.04), but I am not able to boot from GRUB the new kernel version 2.6.28. It just hangs saying "Loading, please wait...". I can boot Ubuntu 9.04 using the old kernel version left behind from Ubuntu 8.10 (2.6.27-11-generic). ------------------------------------------------------------------- I also downloaded the ISO of Ubuntu 9.04 from ubuntu.com. MD5 turned out OK. I put the ISO on my 4GB USB memory stick using Unetbootin. When I boot from it, after selecting "Try Ubuntu without ony change to your computer" from the menu, it also hangs saying "Loading, please wait..." ------------------------------------------------------------------- Today, I received in my mailbox the Ubuntu 9.04 CD I ordered from ShipIt. I put it in my DVD writer, boot from it, and this too also hangs after selecting "Try Ubuntu without ony change to your computer" from the menu. >From the behaviors described above, I can only conclude that there must be >some kind of incompatibility between my hardware and the new kernel (2.6.28) >in Ubuntu 9.04. ** Attachment added: "My system specs" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27792172/report.pdf -- linux 2.6.28 doesn't boot for recent processors with XSCALE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343268 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
