[Bug 546393] Re: MacBook Pro 5, 1 / 5, 2 / 5, 3 / 5, 5 fails to boot into 12.04 desktop

 

Christopher "cv", 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 (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. 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-v3.13-rc4

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.

Bug description:
  Unable to boot into the Ubuntu 10.04 beta1 Live-CD. Therefore also
  unable to install the OS

  1. When nothing is set in the modes menu and no button is pressed then
  one can't even see the new Ubuntu Plymouth theme. The only thing one
  sees is a blinking cursor and it doesn't boot at all.

  2. If one presses F6 in the options menu and choose "nomodeset" then
  one does see the Ubuntu Plymouth theme but the laptop fails to boot
  and stops at the point there the b43 Wireless module gets loaded. The
  Wireless module seem not to be suppoted nativley. This would not be
  such a Critical issue HOWEVER only in this case the boot process
  HALTS. There is at this moment no know way to resume the boot to
  contine with the install. The option noload=b43 does not give any
  different solace.

  We repeated this procedure and the point where it stops is always the
  same.

  "b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 8, Type 4, Revision4)"

  Also using various boot options like: acpi=off noapic nolapic gave no
  different behaviour.

  Attached are two 2 screenshots and a movie (post #3 and post #12)
  demonstrating the problem.
