Public bug reported:
Hello,
Ubuntu 8.0.4 crashed while opening a .mpg in totem player. it was a hang, no
response to keyboard, the mouse was moving but not response to clicks.
Ctrl+Alt+F1, etc did not open a console.
On a reboot, the system did not come up. Neither did rescue mode. Rescue mode
shows the last few kernel messages were
ext3: recovery required
Orphan cleanup on readonly filesystem
which means Root filesystem with ext3 fails to mount.
I then tried booting with the 8.04 live CD, even the CD never boots up.
When running without the flags quiet & slpash, again the above
statements are the last printed.
I tried all of following Ubuntu live cds, 8.04.1, 7.10, 7.04, no luck.
The message is not printed in the last one, but it is stuck.
Does anyone know of any solution? Is there a way of not loading the
rootfs from the live CD?
I also found there is a fix for infinite loop in 2.6.27
(http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/ChangeLog-2.6.27-rc1),
but am not sure if this is that issue
Thanks
Amit
