I was able to clean load 10.04.3 x64 from the LiveCD onto my machine, as usual no POST once loaded.
Then I took the drive to the P4/945 based system, installed Lilo, got that configured. I needed to update /etc/fstab back to using /dev devices and not referring to partitions by their UUID. Then it still wanted to put Lilo on the partition, not on the drive. So hand tweaked /etc/lilo.conf just a bit, and was successful with Lilo. Next I purged off the two Grub packages. Finally I took the drive back to my computer... and still will not POST with the 10.04 drive in it. So I guess Grub2 is really not to blame. What else could it be, though? Any suggestions of what to try next? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874698 Title: Ubuntu Lucid and Oneiric prevents system POST once installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/874698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
