Thanks for all the testing, Chris. It leaves me a little baffled. That said, to Joseph et al, two questions: 1. This seems to be the same messages from 1794922 but slightly different symptoms. Should they be considered as the same? 2. With the kernel apparently working in Bionic, that suggests some sort of regression in some component outside the kernel that is calling on the USB.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1795092] Re: xubuntu 18.10 daily image (x86) fails to boot - initramfs
It is my suspicion that the change occurred at switch to 4.18; but only because of timeline, and Walter (WXL) discussion providing a link to a possible cause that was introduced shortly after what I recall as being my last successful test on those machines (755, dc7700 anyway) I'm new to testing, and hadn't found the QA-tracker when I started testing 18.10, so my successful tests on those boxes aren't recorded which right now is a pain, for which I'm sorry. I requested on IRC to see if anyone knows where I can download a 4.17 kernel x86 ISO (either xubuntu or lubuntu) when this bug was reported, but it was ~3 weeks ago (3-4?) when last tested successfully on dell 755 & hp dc7700. (I have no idea if or when it was last tested on x201 (I rarely think of it) If older images are available, I'll happily test them (any 4.17 x86 image is what I wanted to start testing on to confirm wxl's theory) --- changed to CONFIRMED as I can't run ubuntu-bug -- 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/1795092 Title: xubuntu 18.10 daily image (x86) fails to boot - initramfs Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Cosmic: Confirmed Bug description: x86 daily image (32bit) XUBUNTU 18.10 - booted & ran fine on dell latitude d610 - booted & ran fine on ibm thinkpad t43 fails on - hp dc7700 small form factor desktop - dell 755 desktop - lenovo thinkpad x201 I don't get the "try xubuntu / install xubuntu" screen, instead it eventually drops to "BusyBox v1.27.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.27.2-2ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system Note: I typed the messages in so typos may exist I suspect it's the same issue as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1794922 where Walter (wxl) gave a possible link to http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Bug-908924-dma-direct-map-sg-overflow- on-USB-access-after-upgrade-to-kernel-4-18-td4387757.html I've been testing xubuntu 18.10 daily images for awhile (but not logging on qa-tracker - my bad, sorry!!!) without issue on t43 & d610, and only rarely booting on other boxes (like 755/dc7700/..)

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1795092] Re: xubuntu 18.10 daily image (x86) fails to boot - initramfs
I no longer have a 4.17 image; and my requests for if anyone who knows where one is (on irc) got no answer. Yes these systems booted the daily ISO three-four weeks ago when tested; but I'd not found & thus wasn't using the QA-tracker at that time, so I have no logs sorry (I'm new to QA-testing) If you can find an 4.17 kernel ISO, I'd love to test it. Note: I don't recall the kernels that it stopped working, the switch to 4.18 was about the same time it was last successfully tested on those boxes. I concentrated testing on lower spec machines for x86 ISO; those boxes are x86_64 capable, and thus only tested very occasionally (not enough obviously). I was pointed to that possible-cause by Walter (wxl) because it effects the Lubuntu image too (both x86) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Cosmic) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- 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/1795092 Title: xubuntu 18.10 daily image (x86) fails to boot - initramfs Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Cosmic: Confirmed Bug description: x86 daily image (32bit) XUBUNTU 18.10 - booted & ran fine on dell latitude d610 - booted & ran fine on ibm thinkpad t43 fails on - hp dc7700 small form factor desktop - dell 755 desktop - lenovo thinkpad x201 I don't get the "try xubuntu / install xubuntu" screen, instead it eventually drops to "BusyBox v1.27.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.27.2-2ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system Note: I typed the messages in so typos may exist I suspect it's the same issue as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1794922 where Walter (wxl) gave a possible link to http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Bug-908924-dma-direct-map-sg-overflow- on-USB-access-after-upgrade-to-kernel-4-18-td4387757.html I've been testing xubuntu 18.10 daily images for awhile (but not logging on qa-tracker - my bad, sorry!!!) without issue on t43 & d610, and only rarely booting on other boxes (like 755/dc7700/..)
