A few questions about kernel 3.0.4
I downloaded it compiled it, I resolved the issue with broadcom wireless device. I still have a few problems.
1) At logging it does not give me the opportunity to choose a kernel, even though I have a few kernels. I even tried including Code:
GRUB_TIMEOUT=-1 2) I get the following two messages before it goes into ubuntu login screen after flashing little info about hardware Code:
[2.543442] ACPI: invalid PBLK length (5) I have ubuntu 10.04 Thank you for reading! PS: I've already posted second message as a reply to a similar problem on 3.0.0, sorry about repeating. |
Those numbers in [ ] are the kernel timestamps.
You might get rid of some of the messages with the 'quiet' kernel flag, but it will probably show errors. |

Set these lines in /etc/default/grub: Code:
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 Code:
sudo update-grub Oh, and undo the changes to /etc/grub.d/00_header. |
I did have the choice before installing 3.0.4, I must have screwed up grub setting, during the installation. Will try tonight and thanks.

Thanks but unfortunately it did not work. Here is grub.cfg file after the update-grub

Thanks |
What version of GRUB are you using? Post your /etc/default/grub file.
Also try deleting /boot/grub/grubenv and rebooting. |
Thanks again:
here is the file Quote:

You did not comment out:
Code:
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 These two lines should be: Code:
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" splash" |
Thanks a lot, that did it! I really appreciate your help.
|
I hope you could answer one more question.
Does linux store the messages that appear right after choosing kernel but before login screen comes in a logfile somewhere? Thanks |
Type dmesg command, use less or grep to find whatever you want.

Glad I could help. You may also find more in the info pages:
Code:
info grub Quote:
Code:
dmesg | less or Code:
dmesg | more For help on less or more: Code:
less --help You can also access the manpages from Ubuntu's 'Help and Support'. Enter man <command> in the search box: eg: man less will open the less manpage in the Help and Support window. |
