[Bug 775935]

 

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better.  This bug report has not been filed about a specific package
rather just about Ubuntu in general.  Examining the contents of this
report it seems that this bug is probably about ubiquity.  If this seems
correct to you (you can get the package description by using the command
'apt-cache show ubiquity') please change the affected package to that
one by clicking the expander next to Ubuntu and filing in the Package
text box.  Additionally, if there are no log files included in this
report it'd be helpful if you were to gather them using the command
'apport-collect 775935' in a terminal after you've assigned the bug to a
package.

For future reference there are bug reporting tools built in to Ubuntu
that can be accessed by going to Help -> Report a Problem in the
application's menu or by using the command 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of
the package with which you are having a problem.

Bug description:
  I had opened this bug for ubiquity but since 11.04 was released, it now seems to be an nvidia/kernel bug, at least i can now get 11.04 to install, but it wont boot afterwards.  
  The ubiquity bug was marked as a duplicate or another bug, which it is probably not, but that bug is:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/744553

  Since no-one will probably look at that one anymore, i am opening this one...
  Here is what i posted earlier:

  ok i tried the released 11.04 today and this is what i found:

  pretty much the same as last week, but I have more info this time:

  to reproduce, i:

  1. booted with the 11.04 release cd and selected install (vs. boot
  into live cd mode). I did not change any command line entries, i.e.
  remove "quiet splash" or add noapic, etc.

  2. selected install alongside windows 7

  3. selected the option to install the third-party codecs, etc. but did
  not select the check-box to download updates(i thought that this may
  have been a problem in pre-release, in that it was failing to update
  the nvidia driver which also somehow disables the driver included on
  the cd).

  4. after the install finishes, click reboot.

  5. on reboot the splash screen displays for a very short time doesn't
  seem to animate at all, and then everything seems to freeze(if i hit
  caps lock or num lock no lights appear)

  6. reboot again by holding the power button in. At the grub screen
  select 'e' to edit the selected boot entry. remove "quiet" and
  "splash" from the kernel line and select ctrl-x to boot

  7. the log messages come up and i notice a few things there. (i will
  attach a picture that I took of it):

  init: ureadahead-other main process (626) terminated with status 4
  init: udev-fallback-graphics main process (675) terminated with status 1

  ... later on ...

  starting automatic crash report generation [fail]

  8. a few lines later the machine becomes unresponsive

  Once i boot back into windows, i can mount the ext drives and i got
  the install, etc. logs from them which i will also post.
