Ubuntu netbook 10.10 live : NOT working

[winux]

Hi

Preliminary
In order to try live CD on my Netbook "MSI U130", I had to make a live key. The program to do so, coming from Ubuntu, doesn't work, so I used "Unetbootin". It worked beautifully with" Ubuntu netbook 10.04". So I did the same with "10.10 alpha 2", today's version july 17, and IT DID NOT WORK

What I did with Ubuntu netbook 10.10
I did the same as before, on the same USB key, but at boot start I got a message error
 (see attachment "boot screenshot on MSI U130")

Then I followed the suggestion and entered : init=bootarg
I went a bit further but still an error message

I've tried another key : same

I've tried it on another PC : HP Compaq 6510b
another error

So it never works whatever key or PC

Thx for correcting the bug, because I love the netbook version on 10.04 and I'd like to test 10.10

Same wiyh today's version july 31st

[winux (g-vaquant)]

Still the same with yesterday's version August 11th

By the way I did the live key with the same progrem as I did for 10.04 which WORKS: unetbootin

Here is a snapshot of the result.

Any suggestion to help you to find out??

I've tried 10.04 on the same key as the one I used for 10.10.
The result with that key on my netbook is:
10.04 OK
10.10 NOT OK

As a conclusion I would say the bug comes from your alpha version for sure ... sorry !!!

[winux (g-vaquant)]

Still the same on August 17th version and new trial on Compaq PresarioCQ 61

[winux (g-vaquant)]

Still the same on September 2nd version!!

May I remind you that this a MAJOR ISSUE for this version because on 2 different laptops, different brands, one cannot even boot the system up

The official release is, as far as I know, in 6 weeks time and, since the time I originally related that BIG BUG (july 17th), the status is still NEW and nobody in charge!! How can you leave such a situation with something that does not work at all, I'm amazed.

I'm afraid I won't be able to use the new version of actually this wonderful product

Hey can you try the steps outlined in the following wiki and see if you sucessful:

Cheers

Hi Kurt

Very happy to find a human on the line. I followed your interested link, but no result

1-Boot options
Once I saw something on the screen, I pressed the shift key and hold it down, but I still got the same sequence

2-initramfs : which seems to be the problem, same
I've tried:
debug --> /bin/sh: debug: not found
httpd --> /bin/sh: httpd: not found
break --> back to --> (initramfs)

Sorry but I cannot get thru this message:
no init found

Any other suggestion to find WHY the init is not found????

I'm surprised to be the only one complaining because this happened on 2 different PC and 2 different USB keys

Thx for your (future) help to try to go any further on

Finally I got thru with a tool which did not work on 10.04

The latest update of Ubuntu netbook Lucid permitted me to create the live usb key from the internal tool located in Admin.

Forget that post which was not a bug .... finally
