Might be CDROM drive related (see below) Similar experience with the 10.04-1 CD ie computer boots on the CD but hangs with message indicating problem mounting /dev/loop.
CD is verified OK and boots on other computers. Problem seen on old Compaq Deskpro desktop (1 Ghz Intel CPU) and a VIA EPIA mini-ITX board (VIA 800 MHz CPU and VIA chipset). Problem solved on Compaq by changing CD drive to a DVD reader (LTD 165H, unknown manufacturer year 2002) Problem verified with Acer 40x CDROM from 1999 and Liteon LTR40125S CDRW from 2002. Solution (DVD reader) not tested on VIA board. Problem not seen when using the 9.10 CD. -- Kubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 Live CD failed to start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577684 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
