A friend of mine has a dual-boot system with Ubuntu and Windows 7. He encounters a kernel panic if he wants to boot up Ubuntu after a Windows session.
This sounds pretty strange to me, however I actually witnessed the behavior.
Has anybody of you heard about this before? Any idea what the reason might be?
I had this problem on an old ami bios. Disabling the 'plug and play os' feature in the bios worked for me. A friend also recommends disabling quick boot, but the last time I saw that was long ago. I remembering it even going so far as when it shifted to gui mode, the windows desktop would flicker for a second.
