Public bug reported: Dear all,
I am experiencing a severe problem after a new install of Natty Narwhal on my Macbook Pro last night: The install worked fine, but after reboot nothing came up except fo a black screen. After forcing the machine off and on multiple times I was able to bring up the rEFIt boot menu by pressing and holding the 'Alt' (or Option) key and I can then boot into MacOSX or Ubuntu without a problem. After restarting / powering off I then have to turn the computer on / off the same number of times (3 or 4, I don't remember exactly) where nothing happens until it works again. I am using a MacbookPro 5,5 (13.3 Inch). My harddisk is setup as follows: 200MB Partition for EFI 20GB Partition for OSX 18.6 GB Partition for / (ext4) 108.49 GB Partition for /home (ext4) 1.86 GB Partition for swap Other people also seem to experience the same issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10743955&posted=1#post10743955 This is a pretty big problem for me, so your help is very much appreciated.
