Bug Description

After upgrade from Edgy occasionally got a CRC error message when booting (both normal and restricted). Same with 2.6.20-12.
But sometimes after repeating with a same kernel I could manage to boot without problem. Re-download/re-install wont fix.
Not a SATA installation.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. What exactly is the content of that CRC error message? Thanks in advance.

After "Starting up..." message it gives "crc failed" and then "System halted". Same with recovery kernel (no any additional messages). Old kernel from Edgy (2.6.17-10) booting ok. Sometimes (not so often) after continuous restarting new kernel could boot up.

This may be a hardware or memory problem with your computer.

Can you run a memory test program? There is a memory test boot menu option on the Feisty liveCD.

Thanks.

I get the same error with my MacBookPro. In addition, my keyboard does not work.

Finally, it was a memory problem. Strange enough, there was no errors with memtest... Anyway.
