Public bug reported: Dear all,
I have recently installed Trustry (14.04.1) on my Dad's laptop. The laptop was running Ubuntu 12.04 before without any issues. However, after installing, the system won't boot into Ubuntu. At some point after selecting 'Ubuntu' in Grub, the system reboots. What should happen: Ubuntu boots normally, Dad is happy What happens instead: Ubuntu bootloops, Dad is not-so-happy. Specs: Samsung P560, Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 (2.53 GHz), 4 GiB RAM, Nvidia Geforce G9600M GS. The laptop also runs Windows 8.1 Pro in a Dualboot environment. Unfortunately, since I cannot boot into Ubuntu on his laptop, I cannot provide detailed information about the running kernel, since it won't run altogether. There is a very similar bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1309578, but this one affects only AMD CPUs. Any ideas? Cheers Benjamin PS: Please allow a bit of time for me to react, since I have to relay your suggestions to my Dad on the phone and guide him through the steps before I'll be able to answer. Thanks in advance for your patience. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- 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/1361263 Title: Ubuntu 14.04.1 encounters bootloop some time after Grub Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Dear all, I have recently installed Trustry (14.04.1) on my Dad's laptop.
