Rather than going "downstream" from Ubuntu, I think I will go "upstream" to Debian. I was thinking I would create a boot volume on a USB stick or SD card -- enough to at least get me a terminal prompt and networking. If the current working hypothesis is correct, some revision in kernel 2.6.31 (or earlier) caused a serious regression. I believe Jaunty's released kernel was 2.6.28, so the problem should be in between somewhere.
It might be useful to look at Mint or some other distros, but keep track of the kernel version too. -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
