Same problem here with a MSI K9A Platinum. Seems like a possible kernel bug or new feature to me. Here's my steps
- Originally had Gusty installed and working... No issues - Attempted install of Hardy with without splash and quiet options. Shows errors that SATA device loses connection and then attempts to re-establish it (about 3 or 4 times). Finally it pops up BusyBox (initramfs). - Tried another SATA drive to rule out drive issues. - Tried another mobo (same make and model) to rule out mobo issues. - Rebooted to Gusty and preformed Hardy upgrade. Upon reboot into kernel 2.6.24-16, I found myself back in BusyBox. Reboot back to kernel 2.6.22-14 and it booted back to my old desktop with minimal issues (considering it still had all the new packages installed). - Disconnected SATA drive and plugged in an PATA. It booted to the installer and I could partition and install to that drive. I haven't yet tried to specify any kernel parameters upon boot. Will try that when I get some time later. -- initramfs error/problem ubuntu 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
