I'm having similar problems on two ASUS boxes, both with SATA drives attached.
One of them, an ASUS V8M-MX/S, refuses to boot AT ALL after the Hardy upgrade. It always drops into the initramfs screen. Adding all_generic_ide "fixed" it, in the sense that it now boots, but I have no idea if this has resulted in degraded performance, etc. The other box, also an ASUS, but I don't have the MB name handy, is an Opteron-based board. It frequently requires several hard boots (reset button) to boot after power-up, stopping in the same screen as above. Also, reboots from the shutdown menu frequently stall the same way. I have NOT tried all_generic_ide, but will do that and see if it helps. This is irritating, and I'd like to see it fixed. If someone has fault-isolation suggestions (NOT workarounds - I want this fixed properly), I'm happy to try them, within reason. I'll post an update to this after a few reboots with all_generic_ide. -- initramfs error/problem ubuntu 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
