I've experienced a similar hang up to Beta 1 whenever I tried to boot the LiveCD (haven't tested Beta 2 yet). However, I only got the Glib message in Alpha 3. Removing quiet splash makes it work, so I believe this is a Plymouth issue.
I'd also suggest that this bug be marked critical, as one reply stated, this is a showstopper. It doesn't matter how awesome Lucid is, if a user can't even boot the LiveCD on a relatively new computer. Also, greater attention should be given to so-called duplicates, there is likely more than one issue at play here. -- Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 3 won't boot, with (process 239): GLib-WARNING **: getpwid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0), on HP Compaq Pentium 4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532984 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
