ianw1974 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Why can't you log in as root? You can do: su to get root privileges and then run dmesg. As for the grub config, this is how it should look: title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=dfe39b72-7dd2-4d0c-af58-5abd9badd4bf ro quiet splash acpi=off initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic quiet title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic (recovery mode) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=dfe39b72-7dd2-4d0c-af58-5abd9badd4bf ro single acpi=off initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic title Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+ root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/memtest86+.bin quiet as mentioned, it goes at the end of the kernel line. You can either edit the file and then reboot, or when booting press ESC to see the grub menu, and then edit on the fly so that it's disabled until you reboot. To edit the file, you need to have root privileges, so unless you can use "su", you have a problem and won't be able to solve it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countable Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Ah, but the problem is i was never given the root password, i naturally assumed that it was the same as my normal password, which it isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 You didn't make this install of the system then? If you did, and don't know what it is, then you can set it up: sudo passwd root you will then be prompted for a password, which is your password - as you are using sudo. Alternatively, if you don't want to change the root password so that you can use su, then you can just do: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst for example to edit the grub config. Or, as mentioned, boot and edit on the fly from the grub menu. Alternatively, for dmesg: sudo dmesg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw1974 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Have you rebooted with the acpi=off selected? Did it still take a long time to boot your system? Other parameters you can try to add to the end of the line are: noapic nolapic but do one at a time, and then see if it starts any faster after that. Then report back and let us know.

Countable Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 No deuce: acpi=off prevented my system from booting at all, had to reboot and edit it at the menu. As for noapic nolapic, it didnt change anything :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Just disable ipv6, and replace the /etc/hosts entries with non-ipv6 ones. It should boot some one thousand times faster now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarecrow Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 (edited) Sweet! How do i do that? See what Ian says here As for the /etc/hosts file, remove its contents and start adding normal addys. A mandatory one should be 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost {your-computers-name} EDIT: just realized you use Ubuntu, so probably Ian's post is not the best one for your case. Better look here Edited February 13, 2008 by scarecrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countable Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Thanks to this person, its actually now fixed. The splash doesnt come up but ill be damned if i try to sort that out, because my laptop stopped booting for a while :/ Thanks a bundle, everyone that helped.
