grub boot options
June 1st, 2007 by aeI’ve been having some instability due to (i think) my particular motherboard (ASUS M2N-E). I’ve tried a million different settings but have finally found a set of grub options which work.
Some of the options are perhaps not necessary, but I’m sick of trial and error so they will stay! I post this because I’ve seen similar problems with no solutions in forums. So if you are having random crashes with ubuntu feisty… try that grub line out.
ro quiet splash noapic irqpoll noacpi acpi=off
the irqpoll is for the usb ports……

Well – I am having issues with the M2NPV-VM and variants – about to fix them with new ones – so tired of the random crashes!! I just modd’ed menu.lst and rebooted via ssh – we are back up – will post back with some uptime and if its more than a few days – and I am going to beat on this machine – test test test – if its still up, I owe you – so please, keep blogging. You and only one other have experience with this mobo (according to google)

Issue turned out to be the bios – updated that and all is well – until I did that the options helped stabilize things for a month…
