[Bug 1526149] Re: Ubuntu start up on loop

 

Ismael, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/Laptops-and-
netbooks/Lenovo-G-Series-laptops/Lenovo-G570-Notebook? an update to your
computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (33). If you update to
this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not.
3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Ubuntu start up on loop

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS  for desktop (14.Dec.15), when I
  start or re-start my laptop, the busybox starts up with lots of search
  lines in a never ending checks loop (DOS OS look alike). But when I
  type "stop", then, soon after, the Ubunto login screens appears,
  everything works well after that. I know I can use it okay except when
  I switch on my computer (or re-start) I have to write "stop" during
  the start up.
