I spent a lot of time on this (trying to upgrade my daughter's machine to a newer level of Kubuntu Linux).
I had the same problem on 9.10. When I tried 9.04, I encountered other problems. But 8.04 would install and run without any problems. I have come to the conclusion that although Kubuntu Linux 9.x or 10.x will install and appear to run on a machine with 384 meg of memory, it will not run reliably. The problems can be catastrophic (like the one reported), or less disastrous like the case of 9.04 not being able to configure the wireless. I have years of experience using Kubuntu Linux 8.04 successfully on 384 meg of memory, and that is probably the last level of Kubuntu Linux that will run reliably on that amount of memory. I gave my daughter back her machine with two redundant Kubuntu Linux 8.04 partitions on it, and no longer have the machine to try something further. -- Kubuntu installs & reboots, but after system upgrade, boot fails. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601661 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
