I'm receiving the message too, while booting the gutsy alternate install cd, but from the kernel.org bugzilla for this bug:
So I would suggest we close this as "apparently confused BIOS, but Linux works". ... Greg, could you please consider removing that message, or rephrasing it in some manner so that it is less alarming? ... The message is now gone in 2.6.23. Closing this bug. But I'm not sure how to update the status of this bug to reflect this. It's marked as confirmed for two versions of the linux source, but unless someone packports the change into a patch (?), then there wont be a fix on any linux source version before 2.6.23. Maybe mark them as fix released, and the fix is upgrade your kernel to 2.6.23 to remove the message (when it becomes available) or ignore it as a warning... -- Failed to allocate mem resource #6 ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/54294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
