In looking at your syslog and comparing it to mine, it seams that your system is mounting root as read-only. You could have a corrupted SD card.
I would suggest using the dd method of flashing the sd card as documented in the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OMAPMaverickInstall instructions or try on a different SD card. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/715003 Title: Maverick netbook installation fails after first boot information on BeagleBoard -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
