Revision history for this message
Michael Kofler (michael-kofler) wrote : [feisty] installer reports I/O error dev fd0

hardware: Asus P5B Deluxe, Intel Dual Core 2, NO floppy drive!
software: Ubuntu 7.04 Beta DVD 64 bit

when trying to start the desktop system (live installer) from the dvd, the kernel reports

end_request: I/O error, device fd0, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0

over and over again until I reset the machine with Strg+Alt+Del

in console 6, one udevd-event is reported

run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit

--------

when I do an text mode installation from the very same DVD, this problem does not appear! the installation proceeds, but the installed system later fails to boot due to bug
