I just installed Ubuntu on my system. My system have UEFI. No secure boot enabled. I ran the installation DVD in EFI mode. After installation, everything works fine. But if I update the kernel or do some other changes like installing graphics drivers, the boot screen gets stuck. The OS won't load.
When checking the BIOS boot menu, I found two Ubuntu EFI entries.
Hi,
I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 on my Acer TravelMate 4001LMi laptop (at present running Ubuntu 10.04). Trouble is, it will not even begin to boot from the live cd. It just goes straight to the grub screen. I have tried with various other live cd versions, even the old 10.04 one, same result. I tried F12 for boot options and selected the cd drive, same result.
I downloaded a copy of Ubuntu 64-bit OS iso images and booted up in the thumb drive. I then created a live USB using Unetbootin. I then booted the live USB up in non EFI mode and installed Ubuntu in a separate partition so that I could have 2 Operating System on my computer.
But I could not get the dual boot option.
I fooled around with the syslinx.cfg file and added a persistent mode to the menu. I also renumbered each of the other menu items respectively and, kept a Live boot option just in case I break the system in persistent mode and, need a clean boot to fall back on.
New Lenovo Z585 A10 laptop.
I can boot the 64 bit Live CD fine - Try Ubuntu - dmesg contains lots of acpi stuff, Suspend is available etc.
When I do the install I am unable to boot without acpi=off in kernel line. Of course when booted I hav no suspend, no battery status etc...
Seems that casper is doinf a bunch of things on the Live CD boot that I am not able to do with my install.
Help !!
(Pretty green when it comes to ubuntu so bear with me.)
Just got 13.04 (3.8.0-19 kernel) installed on my macbook pro 8,2 via usb drive, then used the live cd to make the necesary changes to grub so that it would only use the integrated graphics on boot as opposed to that power hungry AMD (also it wouldn't boot otherwise)
Everythings running fine except for the fact that OSX won't boot from the g
Hi
I 'm victim of the squashfs errors on install, I found this ubuntu thread with the following instructions which I want to try to see if I get any more luck:

Temporary Workarounds
Some users have reported that adding the ide=nodma or acpi=off allowed them to work around this issue (which proved to be bad memory modules).
A few days ago, I upgraded to 12.10. No problems during installation other than two or three errors saying that it was trying to upgrade to something that was already install. So it finished, and asks me to reboot. I reboot, pass grub with no problems, loads up the purple screen from grub, and then hangs on a black screen.
I have tried going into recovery mode, with no luck.
I tried to install ubuntu server 12.04 on the AMD A75(with APU A4 3300) platform.
The install process was smooth, but when the system is booted the display has no signal after grub screen.The system is not dead because the numlock still works.If I choose recovery mode in grub list then choose resume normal boot i can enter the system and everything seems fine.
So I think it is something wrong wi
