I believe I am having this issue as well I'm not even getting Ubuntu loaded. If I remove quiet and splash from the boot args and watch the messages I get the following messages repeating.
Code:
EXT3-sf: mounted file system with orderd data mode.
kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds.
It does this repeating message for about a minute and then drops into a BusyBox built in shell (ash) and offers up a prompt of (initramfs)
any thoughts? I am bout to pull the hard drives and see if I can just boot the usb stick...
oh and the usb was made using the tool in the admin menu of a jaunty install.
cheers,
-p
