finally.. this fixed it for me too, thanx!! After a clean install and upgrade on my new (Ubuntu) PC my harddisk suddenly was not found an more. Booted from Life CD, everything, disk, labels seemed ok, but no boot until I did put it the direct reference to my Linux partition.
To make myrand new Pc boot again i replaced (in grub.cfg): linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-17-generic root=UUID=a026ae5a-4c0b-42cd- 8b46-b57bfb433ac7 ro quiet splash with: linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-17-generic root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet splash Note this is a real show stopper for people to install and use a production release of Ubuntu! -- Gave up waiting for root device after upgrade then busybox console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360378 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
