Public bug reported:
HW: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13GHz
on a NFORCE motherboard.
I am running feisty, but having (at least) weekly locks with nvidia's
binary vid drivers. In attempt to fix this problem, I attempted to
install the 2.6.24 kernel (which, BTW apt-get always puts the wrong UUID
in my menu.list file for grub - but that's another issue)
I temporarily added the Hardy repo + apt-get update, then installed
(today at 2007/08/08)
linux-image-2.6.24-7-generic
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-7-generic
linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-7-generic
linux-headers-2.6.24-7-generic
Then rebooted.
The 2.6.24-7 kernel booted, then I get several screens of 'Segmentation Fault'
and I am left at the initramfs prompt. I could not find any logs or anything
else to find out what/who was seg faulting.
I did have a very limited command prompt, but no vi, no bash, etc. I
don't know if this kernel is using a ramfs, but if it is, that is where
I was stuck.
Please let me know how to get you more meaningful information.
