I have another x86_64 laptop with 4GB RAM that runs 64-bit Intrepid perfectly.
The problem has something to do with that particular CPU and chipset. And it has something to do with power / CPU frequency. If you put acpi=off in the boot line, it doesn't automatically reboot, but it does hang. On Fedora Core 10, I was able to install it from the installer (live CD does hard reboot), but the installed image would reboot unless I disabled the automatic startup of the CPU frequency service. But then, if I tried shutting down Linux, it would again reboot hard. Maybe the power / frequency management in 64-bits doesn't recognize the CPU / chipset type or something like that. -- Bhaskar On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 2:20 PM, Ralf Naujokat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just a comment: > > My Desktop PC has 4GB of Ram, and does boot with Intrepid-64. > So it's not just having 4GB of Ram. > > greetings > Ralf > > -- > 64-bit Intrepid automatic permanent reboot loop related to having exactly 4GB > of memory > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272530 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > -- 64-bit Intrepid automatic permanent reboot loop related to having exactly 4GB of memory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272530 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
