Public bug reported:
I am trying to install Hardy on a newly built system (AMD Athalon 64 X2,
GeForce 8200 board). Whether trying to run live or install, it goes
through the Ubuntu splash screen, then drops to the "initramfs" prompt.
Using Hardy 64-bit install disk. (If I leave the "initramfs" prompt long
enough, I get "SRST Failed")
What I've tried so far:
* ran F6, entered various combinations of "all_generic_ide", "floppy=off",
"irqpoll". No change.
* Reconfigured bios to default, removed vga irq in bios, fiddled with
various irq configs. No change.
* Disabled floppy in bios. No change.
* Enabled floppy in bios. No change.
* Disconnected IDE and left Sata. No change.
* Disconnected Sata and left IDE. No change.
* Tried to boot off old working 32-bit copy of Hardy on old IDE drive. Went
through grub, then dropped to initramfs prompt again.
System specs:
* AMD Atahalon 64 X2
* GeForce 8200 board
* Using on-board video
* 1 Sata, 1 IDE, 1 CD, no floppy
* 2 g RAM
