I'm having problems installing Ubuntu Server similar to those I've seen others encounter, but I've yet to find a clear answer on how to solve from any of their threads. :confused:
I've tried installing amd64 12.04 Server and amd64 12.10 Server on a Supermicro SuperServer 6015B-NT and had zero luck. Install media = usb stick. This is a dual proc Xeon E5420 2.5GHz machine w/28GB of RAM and an Adaptec 5405 RAID controller, with 4 x 3TB Toshiba 7200 rpm SATA drives configured for RAID 10 (~6TB array).
Problem:
- Boot fails, usually somewhere after a statement like this:
and then... haaaaang (ctrl-alt-del doesn't work)
- Recovery mode also fails to boot, usually after what appears to be an ATI Radeon driver issue or an ACPI error:
and then.... haaaaaang (ctrl-alt-del doesn't work)
Radeon break looks a little more like this:
and then.... haaaaaang (ctrl-alt-del doesn't work)
- Rescue Mode provides a little bit of detail:
I've typically elected to Execute a shell in /dev/host/root:
Any help or suggestions are MOST appreciated! Thanks! :)
