[Bug 1152324] Re: [Lenovo b485]: Can't install precise 12.04.2 or 12.04.3 from live image or via PXE

 

Jeff Marcom, 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 just make a comment to this?

Title:
  [Lenovo b485]: Can't install precise 12.04.2 or 12.04.3 from live
  image or via PXE

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Problem,

  I'm currently unable to install 12.04.2 via PXE or live cd image.

  When trying to install via PXE the machine will hang with the
  following kernel messages showing:

  [0.004205] [Firmware Info]: CPU: Re-enabling disabled Toplogy Extensions Support
  [0.004254] CPU: Physical Processor ID: -
  [0.004293] CPU: Processor Core ID: 0
  [0.004322] mce: CPU supports 7 MCE banks
  p0.006443] ACPI: Core revision 20120320

  Whey trying to install via Live CD or Live USB I receive the following message:
  "If you're seeing this the installation has failed", from this point I can select to boot into single user mode, or an automated install.
  Selecting either causes the machine to hang with a cursor in the top left corner.

  Reproducable?: Yes
  I've reset all BIOS settings to the default values.

  In 12.04.1 the system will attempt to boot from the key/CD after
  selecting "Install Ubuntu" and proceed (trackpad is disabled and
  Ubuntu Desktop never loads"

  When trying to boot raring live image, the machine simply reboots
  never displaying a Grub Menu option.

  I have confirmed that the live images I was using are working with
  other machines without issue.
