I looked into this further. The computer in question is set to dual-boot Ubuntu 8.10 and Windows XP SP2. Setting "Configure SATA as" to "AHCI" allows the Ubuntu 8.04 live CD to boot. Unfortunately, this setting interferes with normal operation of my computer. The GRUB menu is very slow to appear and Windows XP is no longer bootable (because I don't have AHCI drivers installed). Ubuntu 8.10 still boots, though. -- Fails to boot on Intel DP43TF motherboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292663 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
