Re: Lubuntu precise-alternate 20120223 booting to command prompt

 

Well, the Lubuntu 20120223 alternate-powerpc booted to command line after installation, now the Lubuntu 2012024 desktop-powerpc.iso (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/20120224/precise-desktop-powerpc.iso ) installer boots to the command prompt during installation. This all on a Mac eMac 800Mhz. Trying startx, I get a failure to load nvidia and nv modules.
I'll file a bug report.

indeed. since 20120222 is still up, i spent last night getting an x86 desktop up and running. maybe i can emulate ppc (with qemu) in it where i had no such luck with my laptop (may have to do with the fact that it's a centrino duo chip). if i get nowhere with that and 20120222 is still up, i can test 20120224 alternate as they seem to be updated still.

p.s. don't forget to include the mailing lists! :D

Just filed the bug report. I've installed four previous v12 alternates with out problems, seems odd that it would happen now that I'm looking for problems.
