This is affecting me on a fresh install on a TravelMate 5520. The live CD works fine, but attempting to boot to the installed OS leads to the 'fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed' error during the boot sequence.
No combination of 'noapic', 'xforcevesa', 'acpi=off', 'nomodeset' helped. I tried fresh installs of 12.04.02 and 13.04, with no luck. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775950 Title: fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed! upon boot (always reproducible on battery only, but sometimes on AC too) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/775950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
