Ubuntu 7.10 Alternate AMD64 hangs at 83%, whilst "retrieving kernel- generic", for over an hour on my Intel Q6600, 4 GB RAM, nVidia 8600GTS before I force reboot. It was running Ubuntu 7.04 32-bit with no problems so I'm trying again with fixed IP. There is a graphics issue with the Ubuntu 7.10 AMD64 Live CDs - they just hang flicking a cursor between two points at the upper left of the monitor.
Why is the install process fetching the kernel from the Internet? Installing a kernel from the CD would be quicker and less likely to crash. The updated kernel can be installed via Update Manager or Synaptic Package manager. What happens if I disconnect the Internet connection before starting the install? -- OEM install Ubuntu hangs @ 91% (setting up Linux-generic) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123055 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
