Since the early days of Rairing I have been unable to run a Raring live session or install. Every daily image I try dumps me at a Busybox (initramfs) command line with the message: "Unable to find a medium with a live file system." This has happened on Raring images for Ubuntu amd64 (last tried 20130112), amd64+mac (20130112), i386 (20130113) and Kubuntu (20130114). Other images work fine. Such as 12.04.1; Ubuntu Gnome Remix (12.10); Ubuntu Secure Remix (12.10). The motherboard is 5 years old with a boring, standard BIOS. Removing 'quiet splash' shows the loading stopping at Initializing Nouveau. Adding 'debug' to the boot parameters confirms that it is in a panic because it cannot find a live file system. It then runs scripts to set up the Busybox console. Anybody else getting this? I found this old bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/817145 And added my comments to it. Error messages are there. I am at the bottom. I also reported it on QA testing tracker. Regards.
