Public bug reported:
Hi,
I have been using the ubuntu-8.04-beta-alternate-amd64.iso Sat Apr
5 11:09:53 2008 (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) to rebuild one of my
boxes. Typically I would netboot but the current netboot files will not
detect any SATA hard drive in my amd64 or i386 computers.
The installer is fine, but if you ALT-F2 through F4 to get to a busy-box
or the log screen and then go back to the installer window after that
all the busy-box screens are blank with a flashing cursor. For screen's
2 and 3 you can press enter and the shell prompt will appear, but the
log screen is forever blank.
If you flip between installer and busy-box screens then the busy-box
screen will blank again, requiring ctrl-d and then enter to get a new
shell prompt.
Have tried this with both expert and non-expert modes, (F6 from the boot
menu), and with verbose and quiet as part of the kernel string and on
both computers.
PC1: AMD Phenom, nVidia 8800GTS, 8GB DDR2-1066 (amd64 version of Alternate ISO)
PC2: Intel Pentium Dual, ATI Radeon Express 1100, 2GB DDR2-667 (i386 version of
Alternate ISO)
I am putting this under busy-box as I do not know where it should be.
Thank you
