Antonio Macchi III, 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 kernel 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-v3.11.1

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.

Title:
  Boot fails after kernel upgrade to 2.6.32-21generic on Ubuntu Lucid
  Beta2

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Boot fails completely after kernel upgrade to 2.6.32-21generic, giving
  no sign of intelligible activities. No log is recorded nor any console
  progress can be shown on boot, only an empty screen.

  The system is a Sony Vaio laptop model VGN-B1XP that otherwise works
  very well and had a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Beta 2
  alternate 386, that worked nice with kernel  2.6.32-19 from Beta 2.
  Earlier test of Beta 1 worked fine up to kernel 2.6.32-20, but also
  stopped working after upgrade to the kernel 2.6.32-21 generic.

  Hopefully our kernel and distro heroes can solve this serious fault. It threats to undermine confidence of a LTS-release.
  Sorry but I cannot provide other details since there are no logs of those boot attempts. I could not find a way to file this bug from the menu.
