@pete Nope, the last linux that ran on this machine was RH Shrike, about 6 or 7 years old by now. It booted with LILO, not Grub. I don't think that the latest kernel(s) are the problem here, since I can boot from a recent CD well, go into rescue mode and pull in all sorts of updates. It's the loading of the kernel and initramfs that goes wrong, so I blame grub for now.
Nice to donate it to a student, shame of the Win tho'. How do you expect to wean them off M$? ;-) cheers Tom -- fails to boot after clean install; memory allocation problem (older Compaq server) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/513528 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
