Did you change the blockchain database storage location? I did that once and probably made a mistake, Armory wouldn't go online and didn't give any error message, had to uninstall everything and start fresh for it to work.

Ignore Armory's torrent. Grab the bootstrap torrent yourself, and feed it to BitcoinQt manually. Before going on Armory, try to get Core to work.

bitcoind is crashing. Start BitcoinQt manually and see what it has to say for itself

Sorry for not updating.
I tried to start bitcoin-qt it just open the splash window and nothing beyond that point. and get

Code:

bus error (core dumped) bitcoin-qt

That is pretty bad. Either your bitcoin-qt executable is corrupt, or your RAM is bad, or there is some very bad data in the local copy of the block chain causing bitcoin-qt to crash like this. If I were you I would start by running an overnight test of the RAM (I believe that there is a RAM test on the Ubuntu installation disks, RAM errors are surprisingly common) and then try to reinstall bitcoin-qt. If both fails, try deleting all of bitcoin-qt's data and let it download again (or start by torrenting the latest snapshot of the block chain).

Did a memory test, no errors, deleted block chain and now downloading the new blockchain via torrent... seems like it was corrupted. thanks picobit.

edit: ill report back after i download the whole blockchain again.
