perhaps this is related Bug #156428 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/156428 If it is this problem (with 2 seagate drives) the fix appears to be
static const struct drive_list_entry hpa_list[] = { { "ST340823A", "ALL" }, { "ST320413A", "ALL" }, { NULL, NULL } }; I am working on a system with what seems like identical issues, so far feisty will install but gutsy will only upgrade from feisty, the addition of all_generic_ide to the end of the boot command in the menu.lst seems to work but its still very slow. I think the problem is the seagate drives report a non existent sector. this causes a massive slow down in boot up times. I am going to try hardy alpha2 alternate and see if it works. It installs without issue problem with some updates but thats to be expected. -- Final Gusty throws me in to BusyBox on all attempts to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153991 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
