Thanks for the feedback. I installed the latest version from the link you provided with the same results. The system continues to seize shortly after booting up and logging in. I repartitioned the hard drive, checked it for bad sectors (didn't find any) and reinstalled lucid and this time made a note of the messages at the end of the installation.
At the end of the installation, it gave the message to reboot. I allowed it to reboot itself and in the process of shutting down it ejected the CD and gave the following messages: casper is resynching snapshots and caching reboot files end request I/O error device sr0 logical block 452948 buffer I/O error on device sr0 logical block 113237 (this was repeated for blocks ending in 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, and 44) SQUASHFS error read data failed to read block 0xda71f0e err unexpectedly disconnected from boot daemon init: plymouth post-start process (20428) terminated with status 2 Please remove disc and close tray end request I/O err 452956 init: plymouth main proc (20427) killed by BUS signal (more end request messages) init: plymouth-splash main process (20691) terminated with status 1 At this point, the system seized and would not auto-restart. I manually rebooted (reboot switch on chassis) and the system booted, logged me in and after about 1 minute as I was opening the "System" menu, it seized. -- system unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584325 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
