Question,
Is the video one of the older/non supported AMD chipsets (HD 4000
and older)?
Are you using Catalyst driver?

It sounds like this may be what you are running into.

Aarrrg, sorry I had to 0 the whole drive without any payoff, I really
thought that would yield results.
As for your current problem, at the grub prompt, press e and edit the
boot line, delete the words quiet and splash and then press CTRL+x to
boot. That should allow you to see all the boot
0ing the drive was not a bad thing. When trying to mount it via rawdisk in
virtualbox i was getting some odd errors and then i had some directories
populate and it got strange from there. It also eliminated some errors so
something was lingering someplace.
Will know more about the splash screen
well it still stalls a bit, but it booted when i got home.not sure
what thats all about but ill take it.

You said you were installing ubuntu to the independent drive (and one of
the messages indicates sdb), but where is it putting GRUB? You may need to
use the advanced option to place GRUB on that same drive. Sorry, I don't
know what screen the option is on during install but it used to be in the
Do you have any flash drives or anything connected it's getting confused
with? Occasionally my computer will reboot with a few flash drives I

When I don't, I
The fact that the device mapper is getting involved with the drive leads
me to believe that the drive was part of a raid, or at least configured
by your raid controller at one time and there is now a superblock on it
that is messing up everything.
You'll probably need to zero out that
well 4 of the 6 drives involved are actively part of a raid. the one
i am using for Linux was already 0ed for that very reason, i do still
have a usb HDD still attached so i will try disconnecting that.
odd thing is i was able to boot a 10.10x64 no issue and installed
there and have been doing
Did you zero the drive all the way to the end, or just the first part.
Also maybe you zeroed the partition and not the drive? Many of the raid
superblocks are at the very end of the drive, and it would still be
catching them if you haven't done the whole thing.
I really think this is whats
H, that should have been good enough, but I guess they could have
put it in the middle. It's not unheard of.
Like I said, something is triggering that device mapper on your drive,
so there has to be something on the drive that it likes.

Funny thing is 10.10, 11.4, and 11.10 were fine with the array's in place
once 12.4 made the rounds it fell over. If i knew more about grub and udev
i could probably bring it back up.
