I spent some time this AM giving this a closer look and one of the first things I tried was removing "quiet splash" from the kernel boot parameters thinking that may provide some clues, but doing so resulted in a successful boot. Restoring the "quiet splash" once again resulted in a failed boot.
Now, I've been fiddling with 'grub-customizer' for a few weeks: https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/grub-customizer Since I multi-boot, I next tried booting the new kernel using a different OS's grub and it succeeded every time. Then I purged grub- customizer, grub-pc and grub-common - and also rm -R'ed both /etc/grub.d and /boot/grub. After reinstalling grub-pc all seems fine. That is I can no longer reproduce the failed boot so I can only assume that some custom mods I'd made to the grub 2 configuration broke things. Sorry for the false alarm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/726796 Title: linux: 2.6.35-28.49 -proposed tracker -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
