I cannot reinstall the system using the iso images as I have data I do not want to delete on this machine. I did intall the linux-image-3.4.0-999-generic_3.4.0-999.201204150427_i386.deb + headers and the booting problem persists. - It stops at the same place as the previously attached jpeg shows. I have to power off the machine in order to get it to work again crtl+alt+del does nothing.
I think the developer have to investigate this firewire "set link power level" problem. The problem must have been introduced after 3.0.0-17 and at latest 3.2.0-23 since the problem can be reproduced in 3.2.0-23 and above. I tried doing the apport thingy but it threw an error in the process so Im not sure all data got attached. ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/981936 Title: Firewire prevents booting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/981936/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
