The computer I have Ubuntu running on now works great. However, the other 4 computers we have seem to be having some difficulty, and I keep on getting the error message /bin/sh: can’t access tty; job control turned off. I went to the ubuntu forums, and saw perhaps it was a faulty cd drive. I replaced it. Maybe a bad hard drive? Replaced it. However, older versions of ubuntu worked…, I checked the forums again. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=415009
It seems Feisty (7.04) may choke on machines with configurations it is not coded to handle. However, this computer is similar to the others. So, I’ll see if there is some work around to get the other flavours of Ubuntu working.
EDIT: Although this may have been the case for me this time, this error may occur due to other reasons, for example, it has happened to me before because of an incorrect boot line in Grub…it would attempt to boot Ubuntu from the incorrect path. I was able to fix it though by editing Grub.
