When I tell one of the systems in question to boot directly from the hard disk, this doesn't happen. It only happens when attempting to go through pxelinux and boot from the local disk. The output looks like this (with some boring bits elided):
TFTP prefix: /cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/maverick-server-i386/ Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default ok Booting from local disk... Intel(R) Boot Agent GE v1.3.27 Copyright (C) 1997-2008, Intel Corporation CLIENT MAC ADDR: ... GUID: ... CLIENT IP: ... MASK: ... DHCP IP: ... GATEWAY IP: ... This repeats several times, and then the "It appears your computer has less than ..." message appears. I therefore suspect that the PXE stack's local boot function doesn't work properly, and as a result we are recursing through the PXE stack until it runs out of low memory. ** Summary changed: - Unable to boot maverick daily images -- RAM not detected + localboot in pxelinux recurses back into pxelinux, and eventually crashes -- localboot in pxelinux recurses back into pxelinux, and eventually crashes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/625294 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
