Public bug reported: HW: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13GHz on a NFORCE motherboard.
I am running feisty, but having (at least) weekly locks with nvidia's binary vid drivers. In attempt to fix this problem, I attempted to install the 2.6.24 kernel (which, BTW apt-get always puts the wrong UUID in my menu.list file for grub - but that's another issue) I temporarily added the Hardy repo + apt-get update, then installed (today at 2007/08/08) linux-image-2.6.24-7-generic linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-7-generic linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-7-generic linux-headers-2.6.24-7-generic Then rebooted. The 2.6.24-7 kernel booted, then I get several screens of 'Segmentation Fault' and I am left at the initramfs prompt. I could not find any logs or anything else to find out what/who was seg faulting. I did have a very limited command prompt, but no vi, no bash, etc. I don't know if this kernel is using a ramfs, but if it is, that is where I was stuck. Please let me know how to get you more meaningful information. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Segfault in initrd with 2.6.24-7 on intel x86_64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190281 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
