Hit Escape when you see grub loading, to get the grub boot menu, and then E to Edit. Change quiet=1 to 0, delete "quiet" from the kernel params. That is stuff from /boot/grub/grub.cfg and you want to turn quiet off and then look for more messages when you Ctrl-X from there to boot.
Look for "pre" script failed. Look for your sd?? drive, is it found? If you do end up at a prompt, rather than busybox, look at "ps aux" and "ifconfig". I think I am seeing different symptoms from upstart problems. Sometimes I bomb out to busybox on ramdisk because /dev/sd?? root drive has not been found and created in /dev/sd's. Other times the root drive (in all cases grub has found it and kernel and initrd have booted from it) is found, and /dev/sd?? is created for it, and UUID is in /dev/disk/by-uuid, but, upstart fails to run sysvinit scripts. I think all of these may be upstart problems and not udev problems. -- [lucid] boot stops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509571 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
