Hi all, 

here´s the scenario:

My main system is Linux Lite 6.2 and it is installed on an external HDD.
It´s a “Western Digital Technologies, Inc. Elements 25A2”. So I always boot my system from there. I´ve been doing it this way for years now and it´s been working really well.

9 days ago however, shortly after pressing the on/off button, the status messages reported something about “kernel panic”, and the system wouldn´t boot.  :-[

So I pressed the on/off button (holding it down for a while) in order to power the machine down. The OS hadn´t booted anyway.

Immediately after that I tried again and this time it worked flawlessly. No message of that kind anymore and the OS booted alright.
^-^
I believe the kernel panic message related to a USB device 1-1.2.3, which points to my HDD.

I started the PC every day for the past 9 days and it has been working fine ever since. No problems.

Today however (after 9 days) that kernel panic business happened again.
These are the messages I don´t like:

    - failed to execute /init (error -2)
    - Kernel panic - not syncinc …  no working init found. Try passing init= option to kernel
    - panic …
    - end kernel panic . 

I tried to boot a second time and now it worked flawlessly again.

As for hardware, I think it´s alright for me. I checked the HDD´s health with 'smartctl' and everything looks alright there.
I also tested my RAM with `memtester' from inside the running system and with 'memtest' as well.
No errors reported. I think (and hope) we may rule out any hardware issues.

I´m pretty clueless about this intermittent boot failure...

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Many greetings from Rosika  :wave

I got *new* laptop and did a clean installation of Linux Lite 6.6. Ran through the updates and so on.

Everything ran OK, even after a few reboots the same evening.  Then the next day, I started the laptop and after login, the desktop launched OK, then suddenly the screen scrambled (multi-coloured horizontal lines), then blank.  After a few seconds, the laptop rebooted.  Again, logged in OK, desktop started OK, but this time it just went blank.

The next day (yesterday, relative to this post) I did a new clean install.  That evening, all was well.

Home from work now, booted laptop and get the same crash sequence.

The only thing I can think, so far, is that during installation, I checked install third-party drivers, which required me to give a password for secure boot.  It said that I would be asked for this password on next boot up.  However, on both occassions, I have not been asked for the secure boot password.

I am now running this from the USB stick.

The laptop is a Lenovo ideapad 330 with AMD A6 processor and STONEY graphics.

How can I start looking for problem?

Buenas, soy nuevo por aqui.

Pido disculpas si este post lo hago en el sitio incorrecto, desde ya, mejor prevenir que lamentar je.
:imsorry

Bueno, ire al grano, pues mi monitor se suspende en cuanto deja de tener actividad, pero aunque he visto
si quiza las configuraciones de energia eran el problema, pero no vi nada raro, esta todo configurado en "Nunca"
Entonces he decidido consultar, ya que molesta bastante no poder dejar el mouse quieto por 5 segundos sin que
se apague el monitor.

Gracias!

Hi, I have installed Linux Lite from a USB stick onto my daughter's Samsung RC530 laptop which had been running Windows 7 home edition, but which had run into boot I/O problems which I could not overcome despite extensive attempts. The Linux installation was done with Linux as the sole OS and as part of the process Partitions 2 & 3 of the hard drive were reformatted. I am encountering a message in the bios when I try and boot which states: "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device or Insert Boot media in selected boot device and press a key". Not sure what changes I have to make to get the computer to boot from Linux Lite on the hard drive and so I have been using the usb with Linux Lite for booting and been trying to load install updates. Below is the log I received and was requested to submit to you.

Any help you are able to give to sort my problems would be appreciated. Windows had originally recorded the DVD/CD Rom Drive as DVDWBD TS-LB23A but presently just known as cd drive.

I have never infected my wife's work windows gear with malware.

Also. I am the best anti-virus by my computer usage and browsing habits. The space between my shoulders handle that job quite nicely.

1. Open Chrome
   
2. See a screen full of attached pop-ups:
   
   
3. Imagine there is only that white space between each pop-up.
   
4. To get rid of the notifications, I click anywhere other than the two included buttons.
   
5. The two buttons are [Activate] and [Settings]. Whereas the link (shown in the second attachment) is [stabledstreaming.com].
   
6. Turning off or restarting and then opening Chrome resumes the broad cycle.
   

1. If I leave the Chrome window active, for 2.5 to 3 minutes, then the pop-up reappears.
   
2. If it is inactive, for 2.5 to 3 minutes, then the pop-up still reappears.
   
3. At your request, I will test whether they reappear

1.      
2. if I don't open Chrome upon rebooting Linux Lite
        
3. if I have closed Chrome using the [ x ], [alt + F4], or killed it with Task Manager
        

Bonjour,
Est-ce qu'il faut faire une installation complète avec une nouvelle iso ou est-ce que la mise à jour se fait de manière "classique" ?
Je me demande si je peux instalelr Linux Lite sur les ordinateurs de connaissances sans avoir à fournir un support important lors de mises à jour importantes comme le changement de base LTS d'Ubuntu.

Merci d'avance pour votre réponse.

Hello,
I am using Linux Lite & updates but now when there is a pdf I only see the red pdf adobe mark (icon), but
in the past I saw the first page of the pdf visible and not the red icon and that was ok...
I don't know how to make it the way it was...???
Can someone help me ?
Thank You,
Fred

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
