This is on a JS20/JS21 with firmware based on http://
Just for the record: the installation of the Fedora development release works without any problems.
If anyone is interested in getting ubuntu running on the upcoming open source release of SLOF I am happy to help.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.
