Title: LinuxCoin Black Screen and Kernel Hang Post by: sonicrules1234 on June 30, 2011, 06:31:55 PM Hey, I've been trying to get linuxcoin working, but keep running into the same problem. As soon as it starts up X, it freezes with a black screen. No flash drive activity, only thing I can get to respond is when I press the power button, it makes a beep noise and then flash drive activity resumes, but still black screen. I suspect it tries to shut down when I push the power button. I read about this problem in another post, but they fixed it by disabling IOMMU in their BIOS settings. That didn't work for me. Any help would be appreciated.

After a few modifications, I was able to get the GUI going. Unfortunately, the persistence didn't work. When booting, I see an error that says that the service live-boot (Or was it boot-live?) failed. When I try to do /etc/init.d/live-boot stop, it says that /live/cow is busy. Anybody know what could have caused this?
