I've got some interesting news. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and then I did a full upgrade to 9.10 development branch. So now I have grub1 instead of grub2 for bootstrapping. Then on menu.lst I have references to two different kernels:
2.6.31-11-generic 2.6.28-11-generic Well, it happens that if I try to boot with the 2.6.31 the system waits with the message following message: "Boot from (hd0,0) ext3 f795cdf6-25af-4d66-bb0d-988d9ec1d656 Starting up..." And then after a few seconds it exits again to busybox. However, booting with the 2.6.28 kernel is a success, system starts and everything works as expected. So now I'm considering this as a kernel bug instead of a grub2 bug!! -- Ubuntu 9.10 Beta doesn't boot from usb-attached hard drive, exits to busybox console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/442679 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 -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
