I could install too, and copy a large amount of data until I got the first failure. From then, failures were frequent and easily reproducible (an rsync would fail in less than 5 minutes), giving me "general protection fault".
However I have been unable to reinstall from scratch again, the process now fails at different stages of the process, both with Natty beta 2 and with Maverick. So right now I am inclined to think my machine might be botched. It was a brand new Thinkpad t420s. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755066 Title: heavy i/o on sandybridge systems with small memory footprints causes system hangs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
