1) YES is is still a *BUG* 2) YES it still fails 3) YES it still fails on later version of Ubuntu 4) I would have thought that failure to boot the live CD on a reasonably new high profile laptop would engender a slightly faster response than something in excess of 300 days 5) Frankly, it was never an ISSUE for me. I simply used Gentoo instead.
Still it's your OS, if you don't care whether it works or not, that's your problem not mine, I simply tried to help by letting you know. Additionally, the only other response was to point out that this was not a 'boot' issue. Well, as a technical person of some years experience, I can comprehend what the Chap meant who replied as such. However, from my Grandad's point of view such pedantry is less than useful, as far as he is concerned, he 'just stuck the disk in'. The disk failed while BOOTING, with the detailed error. I was and am still prepared to offer further help to diagnose the problem in finer detail (as noted in the bug report, I tried several iterations of 6.10). Though to be fair I should point out that if the average time between responses is going to exceed ten months, then the laptop under discussion may well have been consigned to the scraphead.
