I am terribly sorry that it has taken so long. Snatched from #106864, could you try this out and report what happens:
To Install Feisty: 1. From the main live CD menu press the F6 key to customize the boot command. Add the option break=top to it and boot up your PC. 2. When you get to the dreaded (initramfs) prompt, type "modprobe piix" or "modprobe all_generic_ide" (either one should produce results), and press enter. 3. Type exit to resume the normal live CD boot. The install process should go smoothly from here on. However, when you reboot your PC your are likely to run into the same problem. So do as above to be able to boot your PC into your brand new installation. The permanent fix is the following: 1. Add piix or all_generic_ide to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules. 2. Run the command sudo update-initramfs -u . -- cannot access tty error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
