Sure. I have been doing all my Ubuntu work for a couple of years on this
machine without any issue, and these saucy images are the first to fail.
But I can retest some old isos to verify it's not a regression of the
machine itself.

Title:
  saucy daily-live images are unbootable on Dell Optiplex 990; stuck in
  BusyBox shell

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  saucy daily-live images are unbootable on Dell Optiplex 990. I just get a BusyBox shell.
  I have tried the latest live images for the past few days without any luck. And the bug persists regardless of which graphics card (or none) I have in.

  Tried at least:
  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20130814/
  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20130815/

  and the Optiplex 990 cannot boot them.

  Interestingly, the same USB images do boot successfully on a Thinkpad
  X220.
