Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22
I've been holding off posting this report for several weeks because
until the 21st September 2007 (20070921.1) daily build of the i386
desktop LiveCD the unionfs BUG (bug #138915 "unionfs NULL pointer
dereference...") has been preventing any testing at all.
Today the start-up got further but it switches to a blank screen (only
backlight on) towards the end of the start-up in both Normal and Safe
Graphics modes. Obviously I removed "quiet splash" from the boot
command-line but once it got into the starting hardware phase it lost
video.
This close to Gutsy release this is getting to be a big concern; two
Vaio notebooks that run Feisty perfectly can't even start with the Gutsy
LiveCD. At this point it is to my mind an important and worrying
regression.
Being reliant on the full unionfs fix before being able to to test other
aspects of the build has pushed the window to fix issues into a very
small frame.
I'm waiting for the alternate CD image download to complete in case that
can get further.
