Would someone kindly answer that... I was just working on the nomodeset issue, trying to replace in the Lubuntu Raring ISO boot menu the second option--INSTALL LUBUNTU--by TRY LUBUNTU WITHOUT INSTALLING (NOMODESET). I changed the option's title and added the 'nomodeset' to the boot parameters of the appropriate line in the isolinux/txt.cfg from which the boot menu is drawn. E.g.
1) TRY LUBUNTU WITHOUT INSTALLING (NORMAL MODE) 2) TRY LUBUNTU WITHOUT INSTALLING (NOMODESET) With these boot paramaters: kernel /casper/vmlinuz append file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash nomodeset -- This way, it would be easier for new users with the NVidia problem to test & install the distro. The question: If people decide to install, would the 'nomodeset' boot parameter be transfered by Ubiquity to new installation just as if someone had pressed F6 and selected 'nomodeset' to boot up with the ISO? Second question: The nomodeset paramater is before the --. Should the correct boot parameters be this instead: append file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- nomodeset Thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664526 Title: setting nomodeset in grub, if live session was started with nomodeset To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/664526/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
