I'm fairly new to Ubuntu. I read bug report 272247 recommended above by nitto. With my limited understanding of Ubuntu, I didn't see any mention of the problem reported on this tread vs that one. The only similarity is that they are reporting also systems freezing on boot up. Some people are able to boot by adding "hpet=disabled". I don't know where to add this parameter. Can someone please explain where can I add that to test it?
I don't know enough about the software to look at the log files (don't know which ones and where) to understand what is causing my system to stop booting. lirel - I looked at your provided links. I could try attaching the recommended log files however, I can only boot into kernel 2.6.24-21. I will think the log files will record a normal boot into that kernel and not the one I can't boot into. Maybe I'm wrong. Please let me know and I will try to post those files if you think it will help to trouble shoot this problem. I don't think this is a simple issue otherwise they wouldn't be so many people complaining on this tread. Also keep in mind a lot of folks, like me, are new to Ubuntu and don't have the technical expertise to trouble shoot or to report the bug in the appropriate place and with the right information. Again, any help will be appreciated. I really DO NOT want to go back to a Windows o/s. Thanks! -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.
