I have a similar, if not the same, problem. Also running an Asus motherboard - P5VD2-MX - the Jaunty Beta Live CD and Alternate install cd don't recognise my hard-drive at all so could not install. When running the Live CD, it mounts my external backup drive, but not my hard-drive. Hard-drive doesn't show up in dmesg or lspci outputs.
I tried a live CD of Intrepid without any problems - hard-drive is recognised and mounted. So, instead of a clean install of Jaunty, I successfully did an upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty Beta and on reboot got the same blank screen/blinking cursor. Rebooted and am able to run Jaunty using kernel 2.6.27-7-generic, which was another option in grub menu. Kernel 2.6.28-* just hangs at boot, presumably because it doesn't see my hard-drive. -- linux 2.6.28 don't boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343268 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
