Salvatore, thank you very much for that post!!! After a week of much trouble trying to install several linux distros I was now successfull installing Ubuntu 15.04 on my brand new W541 with a very simple approach:
I first start the live system with the boot parameter "nomodeset". In the live system I could then install ubuntu without any further hacks and the install system seems to run very good. The boot parameter acpi=off seems to be not good choice for ubuntu, because it disables the keyboard. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1437386 Title: Unable to boot LenovoThinkpad W541 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1437386/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
