ubuntu install problem on amd64/Sapphire ATI
I have a new motherboard Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe with a dual core CPU Athlon64 X2 4400+, and I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.04 for AMD64. The live CD is not able to boot, first I thought that it was the APIC related problem that many people encountered and that is solved with the kernel commands "noapic nolapic pci=noacpi acpi=off..." and so on (enable_
The last messages that I see in the screen when system is booting is:
Loading ACPI modules...
Starting ACPI services...
Starting system log daemon...
Doing Wacom setup...
Starting kernel log...
Starting system message bus dbus...
Starting hardware abstraction layer hald...
Starting DHCP D-bus daemon dhcdbd...
Starting network connection manager NetworkManager...
Starting Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Daemon: avahi-daemon...
Starting network events dispatcher NetworkManagerD
Starting system tools backends system-
Starting Gnome display manager...
Starting common UNIX printing system: cupsd...
-> after that screen goes to black and system hangs.
The boot process don't hangs at the very begining, I have omitted all the messages previous to these last ones.
I have tried several bios versions for my mobo, always the same result.
I have cheched my ubuntu cd with md5 and it is ok, no doubt about it.
I have checked my RAM with memtest, it is ok.
I tried to change RAM to another slot, and tried the same with VGA.
Now I have installed the i386 ubuntu version and everything went ok, but I would like to install the AMD64 version!
My hardware:
Mobo: Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe, with bios 0903 (the last one released by asus)
CPU: Athlon64 X2 4400+ dual core
RAM: DDR2 1Gb 64 bit single channel Extreme Memory
HD: maxtor 250MB
VGA: ATI radeon X550
If someone can help me that would be great, I really don't know what else to try. Maybe someone encountered the same problem?
Thank you all,
