Comment 0 for bug 533032

I was successfully running 9.10 with 2.6.31-19-generic (amd64). However, when I upgraded to 10.04 alpha 3 (linux-image-2.6.32-15-generic), the system no longer boots with the new kernel. It hangs immediately after sending the boot command at grub2. There is no output from the kernel, and no disk activity.

I have attempted to find the problem in the upstream kernel, testing with linux-image-2.6.31-02063112-generic and linux-image-2.6.32-02063209-generic (amd64). However, both of these had the same problem.

My grub.cfg looks like this:
menuentry "Ubuntu installed" {
 fakebios
 search --set -f /vmlinuz
 linux /vmlinuz video=efifb vga=normal noefi acpi=force root=/dev/sda3 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8
 initrd /initrd.img
}

I'm running this on an XServe1,1 with an efi grub2.
