[Bug 1215269] Re: Unable to boot after kenel update (3.8.0-29).

 

Well, i think at least when it comes to my problems, handling this bug
is finished. looks like hardware defect, what wasn't obvious .

i added the -proposed sources as described and when i wanted to install something with apt-get, i got an error while the installation was running. readonly filesystem. lookslike the SSD had an error again and remounted in readonly, i tried making it writeable again
mount -n -o remount,rw /
error, bad filesystem, orphaned inodes, wat?
restart, readonly immediately, remount with rw, fails, same error message
try e2fsck /dev/sdb2
finds something, fix, fix, fix...restart
suddenly boot process hangs in ACPI / SMART check, SSD is not recognized anymore. disconnect SSD, works (at least until "no operating system on drives found")

might have been a coincidence, maybe the kernel update caused it, but i
doubt it. sorry guys for wasting your time (and at least 5 days
searching myself).

Title:
  Unable to boot after kenel update (3.8.0-29).

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After installing the updated kernel (3.8.0-29), I was suddenly unable
  to boot. I will experience a frozen screen for several seconds,
  followed by an error claiming that my installation partition cannot be
  found. However, the 3.8.0-27 kernel seems to work just fine.

  I attempted an fsck, but no errors were found. I then removed the -29
  kernel completely (sudo apt-get purge, followed by sudo update-grub),
  reinstalled it, but ended up with the same result.

  Now for some system details: I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64, with all
  the latest stable updates installed. My machine's hard drive is
  controlled by an Intel ICH9R/DO/DH SATA AHCI Controller chipset,
  currently set to AHCI mode (as opposed to IDE or RAID mode). Ubuntu is
  stored on an exteded partition, which is formatted with EXT4
  (/dev/sda6). My first three partitions are Windows installs, each with
  formatted with NTFS. Also, I have /dev/sda7 as my Swap partition.

  If there are anymore details I can provide, please don't hesitate to
  ask.
