Boot Problem

[elad3168]

Hello all,

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and it all worked well for the first boot.
Then, after allowing update manager to download and install updates, when I boot I get screen titled "GNU GRUB version 1.97~beta4" with the following options:
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-22-generic-pae
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-22-generic-pae (recivery mode)
Memory test (memtest86+)
Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200)

When I choose the first option (to run the OS) I get a screen with the Ubuntu symbol and then the following message:

fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
/dev/sda1: clean, 142198/7028736 files, 1117200/28103701 blocks

and then it stuck.

Sometimes I get the same message with this addition:

init: udevtrigger main process (456) terminated with status 1
init: udevtrigger post-stop process (460) terminated with status 1

also, the numbers in the brackets change - last run it was 506 and another number.

Does anyone has any clue about the reason?

Since my notebook is doing all sorts of problem (including high CPU usage in windows 7 before formatting and installing Ubuntu), I'm thinking maybe some sort of hardware problem. My first guess is the RAM, but maybe I'm wrong.


Thanks for any help.
Elad
