(Get the code!)
Update:
Yesterday I had to try some combo of software that would not install on Lucid together. So I got adventurous and did a two-stage upgrade of my testing system from Lucid to Maverick and then on to Natty. This is the machine with the Intel chipset as mentioned in post #45.
Of course Grub did not install on the right device twice, so I had to boot off an USB-stick to rescue a broken system and reinstall it manually from a root shell. (Where can I log a bug report on that? Grub, grub installer or Ubiquity? The server install CD does not use a GUI.)
Anyway, in all cases the error messages during booting remain, so I can report that this issue is also present in Natty.
The Intel machine is running on Natty now, giving the usual complaints during boot (similar to those in post #66).
The machine with the Promise chipset fails to mount its file systems every time, leaving it useless for now. Have resorted to XP which runs ok, so no hardware issue.
If there's anything I need to check and report back here, let me know.
cheers
Tom
