I'm trying to install Linux Ubuntu on my system. I made my self a USB Linux and rebooted using the usb. The usb was recognized and started and after choosing Presistent mode / Live Mode, Linux begin to start until this error:

EISA : cannot allocate resource for Mainboard

I rebooted and tryed the install option but still got the same error. I rebooted again, with live linux, this time it worked and I was in linux, I restarted to get in the Presistent mode, and again the same problem, then tryed Linux Live again, it didnt work anymore. I recived the same problem.

I really can't understand what is wrong. Sometimes it works sometimes it does't.

The strange thing is, it worked one time, and I reached the Linux desktop. I just restarted and nothing works again. Has anyone faced this before?

  • The EISA error is nothing to worry about. The system should still boot. Could you please try to boot with the option acpi=off ?

    Ok, then i have no idea, sorry. The EISA "Error" occurs on every system, that has EISA support built into kernel, but no EISA support by hardware.
