thedeviantoneand i2o: iop0: could not activate controller11:25
thedeviantoneif i switch to console tty4 it says tail /var/log/syslog no such file or directory11:27
thedeviantoneit repeats over and over again11:27
shawarmaUm..11:33
shawarmaI thought you said it didn't boot?11:34
thedeviantoneright after it starts uncompressing the kernel i get these messages and it stalls11:34
thedeviantonesorry i got past this error Kernel Panic Error" VFS: Could not Mount root device use correct root= boot option11:35
shawarmaOk. The installation went just fine?11:37
thedeviantoneno 11:37
thedeviantonei can't get past the " linux decompressing . . . . " then blank screen 11:38
shawarmaOh, that's in the installation?11:38
thedeviantoneafter a few seconds two lines are displayed11:38
thedeviantoneyes11:38
thedeviantoneim also getting an Bufer I/O error on device hda logical block 111:38
thedeviantoneand i2o: iop0: could not activate controller11:38
shawarmaIs your cd drive the only ide device in the box?11:38
thedeviantonenope the CD drive is hdc11:39
thedeviantonei have 160GB ATA100 EIDE drive on hda11:39
shawarmaOk..11:40
thedeviantonedo i need to disable the scsi card bios?11:40
shawarmaIf you don't need it, it won't hurt.11:41
thedeviantoneplus i'm not to sure about the write policy and read and cache policy settings11:41
thedeviantoneI dont need raid I just want separate disk 11:42
shawarmaI don't know that particular controller, I'm afraid.11:42
thedeviantonehave u seen the first error before?11:43
thedeviantoneBufer I/O error on device hda logical block 111:43
shawarmaYes, when the disk is broken.11:46
shawarma:)11:46
thedeviantoneseriously :(11:47
shawarmaOther than that I could probably happen if the controller is acting strangely.11:47
shawarmaIs it a new server?11:49
thedeviantoneno11:49
shawarmaAlright. To be honest, i don't entirely remember what the Dapper install looked like. Isn't there and option on there to not switch to graphical mode or something so that you can see what goes on?11:51
thedeviantonei've tried everything11:52
thedeviantoneserver boot optons11:52
shawarmaCould you try with a newer installation CD?12:01

shawarmathedeviantone: Sounds.. "interesting".12:38
shawarmathedeviantone: What's on the server now?12:38
thedeviantoneit brings me to the partition disk screen, but no matter how i try to partition the 160 IDE drive it returns to the same screen asking me to repartition12:39
thedeviantoneit doesn;t even see the scsi12:40
shawarmaI mean what was on the server before you started installing Ubuntu on it?12:40
thedeviantonewindows 2000 but that was on another hard drive12:41
