Arch saves Gobuntu, almost
Against my better judgement, I tried to install Gobuntu off a daily build CD because I wanted to get a look at it, and to see if I would have any hardware issues with it.
Unfortunately, as I should have known, there were some inconsistencies in the ISO (or perhaps a bad CD, or an incomplete download, who knows) that left me with a half-installed system. I RSOD’d three or four times during the installation process, and finally just hard rebooted with a “I’ll take it like it is, thanks” attitude.
Then, remembering how I circumvented a kernel crc issue with the Arch installation CD, I put that in, and gave it my half-installed root partition as a boot parameter.
And lo and behold, it worked great.
