So, does anybody have expertise with SCSI who can tell me what's wrong here? :confused:

Thanks, @grahammechanical.

That makes total sense. So I edited the boot order in the BIOS to boot "SCSI". Then edited the SCSI BIOS to boot from the CDROM drive which is device #3.

Rebooted....

I do, and I tried using it again but I get the same "Verifying DMI Pool...

Thanks, offgridguy, but can you be more specific? I grabbed a MacBookPro and burned the ISO with Disk Utility, and verified checksum, &.

So, yes, I burned an .iso image of 10.04.4 LTS just to get...

Here's some relevant output from the command line:

$ sudo mount /media/cdrom
mount: no media found on /dev/sr0

$ sudo umount /media/cdrom

$ sudo mount...

Thanks, but I was careful to verify the checksum.

When I navigate (via the file browser) to "computer:///" and click on "CD-ROM drive" the system tells me "Unable to mount location, no media in...

For some mysterious reason, I cannot upgrade my old Jaunty system to the newest LTS, or even 10.04.4 LTS.

Hi all, I just tried installing Karmic (9.10) on an IBM ThinkPad t40. I've run various Linux distros on this laptop without incident, but now after doing a full install, I can't boot the system. ...

Same exact problem here. GNOME-Do, System Monitor, &c.

Similar problem here, running 9.04 and Tracker keeps the indexing pop-up from closing. Annoying.

I have an older IBM Thinkpad T40 that I've enjoyed running Ubuntu on since 8.4. I've also successfully upgraded this laptop from 8.4>>>8.10>>>9.4.

Well, everything is improved under Jaunty,...

Ack! While doing routine administrative tasks, I made the mistake of scrolling over the menu item "Prepare for shipping to end user" and mistakenly clicked it.

I changed the hotkey as noted. However, this shift + space is a bad combo. When I tried capitalising the first letter of this reply, for example, it invoked Ubiquity when I really just wanted to...

I just added the Ubiquity plugin, and let me just say that I've tried and used a LOT of FF plugins on both Ubuntu and Win. This one is very, very worth it. I'm loving the quick command...

I fixed this problem, which had to do with the Aironet driver, by blacklisting some airo driver modules.

I followed the directions here:

ifconfig -a has an entry under lo that includes, UP LOOPBACK RUNNING. Anybody have an idea?

Thanks!

I have a T40 with ethernet. Today I tried to upgrade to Hardy, but now I have no ethernet/wireless. I've tried many of the solutions offered in the "wireless" threads, to no avail.

I understand...

I thought I'd reply here with this common problem, since there are a lot of ThinkPad users here. I have a T40 here and really love it. No problems at all with Gutsy.

Today I tried to upgrade...
