1. Press Esc during Grub boot delay to access the boot menu. 2. Select your actual Ubuntu boot line and press "e" to edit it. 3. Select the "linux" line and at the end of the line, remove "splash" and "quiet". 5. Type "ctrl + x" to boot the custom boot line.
I followed these instructions but had to remove:" splash quiet splash " I tried removing different combinations of it but it didn't work. Whenever I boot it gets stuck either on the splash screen (dots light up and down but no harddisk activity and doesnt' boot). Or if I took out the splash quiet splash parameters I get a stream of text and it stops at something like "reading SATA link not established". This may be a bit different to the above people, but the symptoms seem the same and I get it every time - i can't boot into it. I'm running 10.04 Ubuntu and have installed kde (so splash screen says kubuntu but i still use gnome for now). I'm also running this on a Samsung R580-JS02AU and have run lucid on it successfully since last week (after updating). -- System sometimes freezes during boot. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/609845 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
