Confirming. This is a known issue, I have seen at least 4 reports from different Pentium M laptop users that their systems got broken when attempting an update from 12.04.
I have read the Ubuntu kernel irc meeting logs regarding this issue, and it seems that although it was noted at the time that upgrades would break and that something should be done about it, nothing actually was. ** Summary changed: - do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 on Pentium-M fails, breaks system without any warning + do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 on Pentium-M fails, breaks system without any warning (This kernel does not support a non-PAE CPU) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1160346 Title: do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 on Pentium-M fails, breaks system without any warning (This kernel does not support a non-PAE CPU) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1160346/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
