@Christoopher M. Penalver : I have already told you guys previously that my hard disk has failed and I am unable to test the distros. I have only two pen drives both of them are being used for something or the other, so currently I am unable to test the dsitros in any way.
Since this bug is affecting many other users, so I think this should be confirmed by now. Many people have reported that 13.10 worked fine but 14.04 isn't. I am really not in a state to test it as my HDD is dead and both of my pen drives are busy. One is running Linux Mint 16 and other is running Puppy Precise 5.7.1, so I just don't have enough resources to test the OS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309578 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 suddenly reboots when booting from Live USB (AMD APU's) Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a custom built AMD System with the following hardware currently running on Linux Mint 16 : AMD A8 6600k with Integrated graphics | MSI-FM2-A55M-E33 Motherboard | Kingston Hyperx Blu 4GB RAM | Corsair VS450 PSU Today when I tried to install 14.04 amd64 iso using a bootable USB, then the system rebooted. Any further attempts in installing it resulted in the same bug. As soon as I open the "Ubuntu installer" application and click "Continue" button then the system restarts after 2-3 seconds. I asked the same on AskUbuntu and some more guys reported the same problem with AMD APU, so I believe it to be a genuine bug and not just with me. The BIOS version is the latest one downloaded from MSI official website which is version 11.5. Also an Interesting thing is that this bug is common with the latest iso of Arch Linux too, but when booting older distros like Linux Mint 16 from USB, then everything works like it should, so it might have something to do with the newer 3.13 Kernel version. I am not an expert, but I can surely tell that only the newer distros are affected by this bug as reported by some other guys at AskUbuntu and the fact that Arch which is running the newer Kernel is having the same bug, so it probably has something to do with the newer Kernel, but I could be wrong. This bug is not letting me install Ubuntu 14.04 on my hardware and it is affecting a few more users too. Here is the AskUbuntu thread : http://askubuntu.com/questions/449391/unable-to-install-ubuntu-14-04 -pc-restarts-after-i-click-continue-button-in I hope this gets fixed soon or with the 14.04.1 upcoming July release.
