The two workarounds together works for me when running in live mode, i.e. 1) kernel updates work 2) running the latest kernel works
Including the second workaround, i.e. replacing /cdrom/casper/initrd.gz and vmlinuz with the updated ones though made a following test installation on harddisk unbootable. The message I got was: Starting up ... [9.112117] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) This was due to that initrd.img was missing in - /boot folder - /boot/grub/menu.lst Strange, but adding the initrd.img to both those places made the test installation boot up. However, the pointer didn't respond to mouse movements and the network didn't connect, i.e. got stuck in trying to connect to the network. So I assume there is something still missing to be able to use an updated LiveUSB for new installations. Before copying the updated initrd.gz and vmlinuz to /cdrom/casper installations worked. Furthermore, I also tried to copy the missing abi, config, System.map and vmcoreinfo files from the USB to the test installation but that didn't change anything. -- MASTER update-initramfs is disabled since running on a live CD but it is running from a flash drive. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292159 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
