Trio3b Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) 2009.1 (md5sum checks out) on Presario CQ50 boots to a point where I receive message to the effect of : SQUASHFS error: cannot read block ... Warning: could not open an initial console 2009 loaded on this laptop but I also remember getting similar errors but I just let it set and it seemed to load OK. No go this time. Another thing. In the past when a kernel option is selected, it usually lists all the kernel options such as : uuid=hf8dhf48493hf splash=silent, etc (and you add options here) Now the options line is blank. I'm assuming this is to type in additional commands, but why has this changed? Do I have to type in all the commands I want to pass to the kernel? This seems too much. Any way I have tried several options with F4 such as default, no local apic, no acpi (they are all blank) and have let it set for 10 minutes with no luck. I have also tried the trick listed in errata for some CD readers with no luck. I have read that the SQUASHFS error may be due to the DVD reader being SATA but there is no way to change its mode in the BIOS. Also why would 2009 work and 2009.1 not? Any ideas? Thanks Edited May 22, 2009 by Trio3b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter11 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Did you check the burned disk? K3b has an option for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trio3b Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Did you check the burned disk? K3b has an option for that. Well if you mean md5sum, yes checked via k3b and via konsole - both OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trio3b Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) LLABB (looks like a bad burn), Install went fine. Update: Sorry, I guess you meant a checksum on the CD after burn? No I didn't. Edited May 23, 2009 by Trio3b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
