I also have the tsc clocksource error. It appears in multi-core processors, when one core changes state before the other and their clocksources get out of sync. HPET is a much better time source. You can add the clocksource=hpet parameter to your kernel command, but the error will still come up. Ho

Dear Dimitrios, Thank you for your comprehensive answers above. Much appreciated. To answer your questions: a) I think i can boot from older kernels because I can boot PClinuxos 2007 and Linux Mint 3.0. I cannot see from the new system as I boot from a CD and it never gets to the point of asking

Dear Hein, 1) the sd driver warning is not an issue, as discussed in the kernel mailing list: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/10/286 2) the linux kernel included with ubuntu supports up to 4GB (1+3) of ram, not just 3, so you should be ok (even with more memory, linux doesn't crash, it just uses onl

Ok, thank you for the screenshots. Basically your boot process encounters an error and exits to the initramfs prompt. I have only encountered this once, while creating a bootable usb stick, the reason was that I had forgotten to copy some of the files, I did the copying process again and it worked
