Thanks, super informative. It would seem then that, at restart/shutdown time, something is calling iptables. How would I figure out what's doing that, so I can stop it?

I have Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS installed on an Acer Swift 3 laptop (model SF314-42-R6T7).
Initially, suspend did not work right. The system would go into suspend by pressing the power button, but took...

However, it keeps...
This is probably way too late to be of any use to you, but I had that exact problem you describe in the last few days. I do have a partial solution.
For context: I am running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on...
I have a clue now. It appears that the problem may have something to do with VLC Media Player. I had it open - although not with a video or audio file being played - last night when I left the...
Naturally, when I tried to reproduce the problem, it didn't occur.
I know the machine did stay on all night a couple of nights in a row, so I'm not sure what's really going on.
There isn't any such option.

Rather than continue using the Software Center method which doesn't work, I downloaded a .deb package for Virtualbox from the Virtualbox website (virtualbox-4.2_4.2.6-82870~Ubuntu~precise_i386.deb)...
Yes, I am now part of 'vboxusers'.

Groups does *not* show "vboxusers." So I think you are on to something. I'll try the reinstall from console.
Okay, I tried it and there's an error:
This is probably the root of the problem...
I'm at about the same stage as Allen. I did check the md5sum of the .iso I used to install Ubuntu, which was fine. I don't know what else to do.
This must be the umpteenth thread on this topic, but none of the "fixes" posted elsewhere have worked.

Yes, in fact I've put every available device ahead of the SSD in boot order - still no dice.
I ended up reformatting the second HDD, and reinstalling Ubuntu 12.04.2, this time with a "traditional"...
I have a Samsung Series 3 laptop (model NP300-V5A) that won't boot from a second HDD where I have installed Ubuntu 12.04.2 (x86).

Fixparts did the trick. There was indeed some orphaned GPT stuff that was causing the disk to show up as unallocated. So I ran Fixparts, and now all is fine. Thanks!
Hmm. I guess the backup GPT would explain why Windows "thinks" the disk is MBR, but Linuxes get confused.
The Windows 7 installer doesn't allow you to specifically select one sort of partitioning...
I recently built a new system with an Intel Series 520 SSD as the main drive. I'm having some really strange problems with Ubuntu and all other Linux-based tools and distros I've tried so far.

I tried to run the Renesas USB 3.0 controller firmware update, but it stalled indefinitely. As in, I gave it a couple of hours to complete, but it didn't. So I rebooted, tried again. same result.

I'm hoping the firmware update may work on my USB 3.0 card as well, even though the controller is (as far as I can tell) a fake.
Even if it gets bricked, I won't be too upset. Silly counterfeit...
