Darn launchpad "Timed Out" again.
Will someone PLEASE address this!

Anyway, "Yea, what I said before... GRRRR!"

Second time I tried to make a boot USB with "Create Startup Disk" in an updated Lucid.
This is a 16GB USB with 4GB persistence.
Will get more data as available.

Upon rebooting I get" "Kernel Panic. Not synching VFS. Unable to mount root on unknown block (8,1)"
and the a hang.

This happens when I update the USB install with "Update manager".
I did the same thing last night, and the same result this morning on a completely "erased" USB stick.

I get a message at the end of the update in the "Details" section about 3 "Linux" installs - x.22 Kernel, -Generic) that even "Depmod" can't fix. I can't seem to "Cut-n-paste" the messages to a text file to save the exact data. (If it's in a log, it's gone now because erased everything and am trying again - I at least want a bootable Lucid USB for now.)

Let me know if this is just a temporary issue or there is a problem with the x.22 Kernel in this instance. I will try the update on this USB stick with additional info or debugging tools later if advised to.

Triaged? Any further info?

Reiterate: it's crashing at the Kernel Update.

(This also happens when I use the method from "PenDriveLinux".)

I even updated the Lucid data using Update Manager, EXCEPT the x.22 Kernel files, then it booted OK - But then I updated the Kernel files with Update Manager, I got the "Kernel Panic" on reboot.

Screen images attached.
