One work-around I have found to this was alluded to in an earlier email
in t his thread...
It worked for me when this happens.
If on booting your Ubuntu 9.04 release that you've installed on Bootable
USB...
If during the boot process it gets to the Ubuntu "splash" screen showing the
left/right orange/red flash
and seems to stop... pull the USB out for just a second and reinsert it.
For those USB's where I was getting the error mentioned... this fixed it. My
guess is that the bug
is either a timing related bug or an interrupt issue.
* Timing bug could be differences in single core, dual core, quad core
my machine this happens on is a quad core... on dual core laptop I haven't see
the problem.
* If its an IRQ type of problem then pulling the USB flash and
reinserting it would make some sort of state change which maybe that starts up
the process again..In either case, for me, there was a workaround.
After pulling then reinserting the USB the Ubuntu "splash" screen would
start to show the final displays prior to Ubuntu being fully functional.

Subject: [Bug 363868] Re: BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in a way that
Linux understands, Foxconn A7GM-S 2.0
Hi, guys:
I have the same problem when I try to boot from a boot-able USB key and
install a new ubuntu 9.04 system. It drop me to a busy box, and
installation can not continue. I tried i386 and amd64 ISO, it's the same
problem.
My motherboard is JETWAY HA03, used AMD 780G chipset, AMD AlthonX2 4800+
CPU.
An interesting thing is: before I decide to re-install a brand new
system, I've upgrade my 8.10 to 9.04, and the system which I upgrade
from 8.10 is working very fine.
Anybody know how can I skip this problem and install the system from a
USB key?
Thanks.
