Public bug reported:
trying to install any one of several versions of kubuntu or ubuntu
ive tried over the years to install amongst others 9.04 9.10 10.04 and 11.04
from cd
On my amilo xa2528 resulting in the following directly after install or start
respectively
########################################
BusyBox 1.1xxxx depening on version etc
(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
########################################
ive tried to use a usbstick instead but either the same error or in rare cases
different ones, though i never seem to be able to leave the busybox stage
Dozens of nights of googleing lead me to suspect that others share this
problem though ive never seen a solution or a exact error match, this
forum also contains a similar pair of problems though again not a exact
match and a little old.
on a single occasion ive succeded in using the wubi installer in windows to
install. after which everything worked fine for several months. this leads me
to suspect that the early stage of the installer cannot read the hdd or the
cdrom, the cdrom directory in the busybox console is empty.
wubi installer no longer works though,
