["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

timesharehard4dreamers, this bug was reported a while ago and there
hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is
still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest
development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

Title:
  Ubuntu fails to boot on a 'cold' start

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  if i pause the boot, while it's in the bios, before it gets to the
  linux boot, for about 2 mins, Ubuntu boots fine, and if i reboot at
  some point that will be fine too. It's only from an absolute cold boot
  ubuntu will fail to boot. I've tried a Mint liveDVD and that boots
  fine from a cold boot. This problem started while I was running 10.0.4
  64bit, then I got the same problem after fresh install (keeping /home)
  of the current 11.10 64bit. System is a HP DC7800 (core2Duo, 6GB of
  RAM (I've tried switching sticks over), 1TB hitachi SATA HDD, Nvidia
  8400GS).
