Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1737316] Re: Having installed 17.10 I'm getting hardware errors on boot

Hi there. Having played with this a bit more, each time you update the kernel it seems to boot ok, but the only rarely. Does that tell us anything. The first error after the i915 errors begins failed to start volatile files... Subsequent errors include 'Failed to start install and generate colo

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1737316] Re: Having installed 17.10 I'm getting hardware errors on boot

Hi Josh. It seems that a lot of the errors I'm getting are related to Mysql. What file do I need to edit in the boot process to remove that problem and then we can see how stable the rest of the system is. On 14 December 2017 14:17:26 GMT+00:00, Joseph Salisbury wrote: >Can you give the latest

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1737316] Re: Having installed 17.10 I'm getting hardware errors on boot

Hi there. I've attempted to follow the instructions and install the mainline kernel using the instructions from the website. All appears to go fine and I get a message to say that it is updating grub, but when I reboot, I don't get an option to boot to the new kernel version. That said, I instal

Hi Joseph. I've not done this before and I'm not a Linux whiz but I'll give it a go tomorrow evening if I get the chance. On 11 December 2017 20:19:24 GMT+00:00, Joseph Salisbury wrote: >Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer >to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMai
