 Leann,

I just tested the live CD Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 (Intel x86) on my HP Omnibook 6100. The boot process works fine for about 1 minute. Then, the machine shuts down without further warning. It is just the same behavior as with earlier versions of Ubuntu.

As pointed out by other contributions, the bug is most likely on the hardware/BIOS side of the Omnibook 6100.

It would be great if that bug would be circumvented by Ubuntu. BUT: this is not really necessary since there are workarounds (disabling intel-rng.ko). Moreover, updating the BIOS obviously solved the problem as well.

Kind greetings: Manfred
