[Bug 1272429] Re: Trusty daily live ISOs will not boot; "Waiting for network configuration"

 

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue.

However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during
any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all.
Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request
further testing. This is such a request.

  With the recent release of this Ubuntu release, would like to confirm
if this bug is still present. Please test again with the newer kernel
and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

If you want this bot to quit automatically requesting kernel tests, add
a tag named: bot-stop-nagging.

 Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.


** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Tags added: kernel-request-3.13.0-24.46

Title:
  Trusty daily live ISOs will not boot; "Waiting for network
  configuration"

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am trying to boot Xubuntu and Lubuntu 14.04 live desktop i386 on an
  old Acer laptop with Celeron 2.66GHz CPU, 512MB ram (I know, it is low
  on ram) and a Radeon Mobility 9100 igp.

  The system simply freezes at the Plymouth screen with Xubuntu/Lubuntu
  and coloured dots showing and eventually an error "Waiting for network
  configuration" appears and the system will go no further no matter how
  long I wait.

  I have tried with and without a cable network connection to the
  Realtek RTL 8139 ethernet card, but can not try wireless as I need to
  use ndiswrapper for the only adapter I have, a Netgear WG511v2 using
  Marvell chips, showing as  88w8335 {libertas} in lshw output.

  All previous versions of Xubuntu and Lubuntu up to and includiong
  13.10 boot fine on this machine in spite of its low spec.

  I have asked for help at Ubuntuforums
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2200517&p=12907617#post12907617
  and it was suggested there that I file this as a bug.
