| Jan 24, 2014 at 23:06 | comment | added | HeomoSa | noresume worked! How can I make this the default? | |
| Jan 24, 2014 at 22:42 | comment | added | Martin von Wittich | Oh sorry, must've overlooked that. I think it's pretty strange for a distribution to set a grub password, but apparently Trisquel does that. You'll probably have to use a Live CD to recover from this then. | |

| Jan 24, 2014 at 19:12 | comment | added | Martin von Wittich | "3.2.0-38 now behaves just like the other kernels did." - Maybe the issue is not located in the kernel, but in the initramfs. When 3.2.0-57 was originally installed, update-initramfs created a suitable initramfs for it (which was broken for some reason), but didn't touch the initramfss of the older kernels so you could still boot with 3.2.0-38. When you removed the newer kernels, update-initramfs` may have regenerated the initramfs of 3.2.0-38 for some reason, thereby breaking it too. | |
