Bug Description

I have a 6.06 and a 6.10 live-cd.
Both cd's work very well on my Intel Celeron computer (video on board).
The 6.06 cd works also on my AMD Sempron computer BUT the 6.10 version crashes.
The crash comes directly after choosing "Start or install Ubuntu" and I saw somthing like "......initrd.tgz ......"
The computer "hangs" at "Try kill...." .... not sync....
I have made a picture of the screen but I don't know where I can "attach" this jpg-file in this bug-report....
(Attention : the 6.06 live-cd version has no prblems with my AMD Sempron computer)
The computer has a built-in Geforce 6600 video-card.

Thanks for your bug report. Are you using the same Live CD on both systems?

Yes!
I use the same live-cd (6.10) for the Intel and the AMD-pc!

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.
