I discovered this by accident, but it's worked twice now installing Ubuntu 8.10 server
As soon as I'd hit "Install Ubuntu Server" I'd start getting errors including - srst failed errno 16 There were other errors too, but I can't remember what they were.... At any rate, twice now I was able to fix it by opening the CD drive, with the installer cd in, when the errors appear , then closing it. It sounds ridiculous - I know - but it's worked twice for me. <shrug> -- Boot fails on ata3: SRST failed (errno=-16) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220706 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
