Hi Marc, Sorry for the late reply. I ended up rebuilding the box from scratch with Mythbuntu 8.04 and we are living happily ever after (no changes to hardware).
I guess this bug can be closed now as I can no longer reproduce. Regards, Paul -- Mythbuntu 9.10 fails to startup giving kernel hung messages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/498717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to Mythbuntu. Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Invalid Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Clean install of Mythbuntu 9.10 fails to start giving kernel hang messages during boot. This problem first occurred following an upgrade from Hardy (Ubuntu Desktop, not Mythbuntu) > Interpid > Jaunty > Karmic. I thought the problem may be related to the multiple consecutive upgrades, so have now done a fresh install of Mythbuntu 9.10. Given the described history, this bug may also affect plain Ubuntu, but I have not tested. Method of install: Booted from MythBuntu 9.10 live CD and installed LVM so that I could perform install onto a new LVM volume (I wanted to retain existing volumes on the disk). chrooted into new root and installed lvm2 again to regenerate initrd with lvm modules. Performed a reboot and encountered problem on 1st boot. Second boot worked OK and I then did a full apt-get upgrade. Now all subsequent boots fail during startup. SSH server does start successfully, but login via ssh does not present prompt, however I am able to execute commands via ssh, hence I have been able to capture the output of dmesg (see attached). I have not been able to find anything useful from dmesg despite hours of searching and I am getting beyond my area of knowledge. I am running the 64-bit version of MythBuntu on an AMD64 3000 / ASUS K8V-X SE motherboard. Please let me know what other information is required. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
