[Bug 1327772] Re: Early boot crash/reboot DH57JG motherboard without 'nomodeset'

 

mosteo, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Desktop+Boards&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+5+Series+Chipset+Boards&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Desktop+Board+DH57JG an update to your BIOS is available (0663). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything?  If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

** Description changed:

- Since several ubuntu versions (at least since 12.10), this motherboard
- has required extra parameters to successfully boot. Early on it was
- 'nolapic_timer'. Nowadays, it is 'nomodeset'. Without it, the boot
- sequence either panics or reboots (much more often the latter) after a
- few seconds (between 3 and 7 in my anecdotal observations).
+ When booting up it either panics or reboots after ~7 seconds. Please see
+ attached picture of the panic. Since at least 12.10, this motherboard
+ has required extra parameters to successfully boot. Previously it was
+ 'nolapic_timer'.
  
- This time around I snapped a picture of the panic information.
+ WORKAROUND: Use kernel parameter:
+ nomodeset
