** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 903558 [Lenovo ThinkPad L520] Unable to boot 12.04 without 'noapic' flag enabled in GRUB -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1050900 Title: Unable to boot without 'noapic' boot flag Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When I try and boot 12.10 from a live CD without any tweaks, it crashes on a black screen and requires a hard-reset. The only way to get around it is to enable the 'noapic' boot flag. This problem has been present for the past couple of releases, and it'd be great if it actually got fixed. I've reported it before, but I've made a new bug report now to provide updated dumps etc. It's worth noting that at one point it was actually fixed in the mainline kernels, see comment #7 on Bug #903558. I also had some success with a custom kernel config file someone provided me, but I lack the skills to identify the solution from that. I'd love to get some help with this bug. Please.
