Public bug reported: Booting and installing from a live usb for trusty does work. However, on restart the machine will not boot. It hangs at:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/behviox991o01o1/2014-02-23%2016.15.15.jpg Per apw in #ubuntu-kernel a test to add nr_cpus=1 does work to boot the machine. Note that wifi does not work at this point, but it does work in the live usb boot. For more information I did hit this with both the 3.13.0-8 and 3.13.0-11 kernels as I tried to update. --- Original notes --- I'm attempting to install and run 14.04 trusty on a macbook air in a dual boot configuration. I have a Mac 64bit iso bootable usb device that I used to install on top of refind. The very first time I installed and setup it worked. I was in Ubuntu. I installed updates and some basic packages and when I rebooted it would no longer boot. I had gotten an updated kernel so I attempted to boot to the older -08 kernel with no luck. I then attempted to reinstall. I figured I could avoid updates for the moment. I used the USB stick to do an install using the "Remove 14.04 and install" option. When it was done, it would not boot just as before. I attempted to use the usb stick to rebuild grub using http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a -ubuntu-live-cd with no luck. I've tried setting boot params in grub of nomodeset noapic. When I turn off the quiet mode I get the following screenshot where it hangs very early in the boot process around "Booting SMP configuration".
