Lockup on boot from CD at clocksource message.
I got this distro as I figured it was perfect for my needs but it
doesn’t even boot from the CD fully!
It locks up at a message stating setting new clocksource (that part
having to do with CPU I suspect) I see a bunch of
ATA errors before hand, not sure if it doesn’t like my CD-ROM (nothing
else has issues with it or the computer), this is as much information I
can really provide, sorry.
The computer specs are:
IBM NetVista
Pentium 4 2.0Ghz
768MB RAM
30GB PATA Hard Disk
LiteOn CD-RW Drive
Intel everything chipsets
Sorry to say I can not afford to wait to solve the issue before moving on, need this machine back up in running with something more secure than Ubuntu for server use but I now can’t as that was my last CD now gone so unless I find a network bootable distro and can figure out how to do that.. oi
