View 5 Replies View RelatedEvery time I try to create a bootable USB on my sid boxes, it comes out corrupt. I'm trying to use a multi-arch netinst iso so I can back up my tablet. Anyway, I use
[code]
# cp debian-8.3.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso /dev/sdf
[code]
And it won't boot, so I checked the drive with gparted on my desktop, and get some errors about invalid block sizes and corrupt partitions. When I try fdisk, it lists an EFI partition as I would expect, and then another partition with the right size, but its listed as type empty. I also get some invalid size errors there. This happens with an older iso I have successfully used in the past. When I run fdisk on the ISO file, I get the same errors as the USB drive. Here's the output
[code]
daniel@frakenstein:~/Downloads$ sudo fdisk -l ./debian-8.3.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso

I think my issue is with the message about 2048 vs 512 byte block sizes. I tried setting up partitions on my drive and just copying data to them from the iso. This makes the BIOS recognize the USB disk and it tries to run the bootloader, but fails since the symlinks are messed up copying that way. I've tried a few different boxes (all running sid) and I get the same results on all of them.

I've got an LG CD/DVD player/writer in my desktop, and it's suddenly stopped working. No error messages at all, but it doesn't acknowledge any discs any more, whether they're CDs or DVDs or CDRWs or anything. How can I diagnose what's wrong? It's only 1.5 years old so I wouldn't expect it to be a hardware problem really, but I can't think of anything else. At first I thought I'd broken something with Squeeze, but I ran a live system from USB stick and it also can't read any discs at all. Also I tried a bootable DVD and couldn't get that to boot either, so I'm pretty confident it's not a software problem. It's always worked fine before and hasn't had any shocks or moves or anything (that I know of). The green light flashes when I close the drawer, just flashes a few times and then stops. There's nothing in /var/log/messages. Are there any tricks to figure out what might be wrong or is it looking like I need to buy a replacement drive?

I have trouble setting up NFS on Debian Squeeze (2.6.32-5-kirkwood armv5tel GNU/Linux) running on a Sheevaplug. After some digging and googling I found that the NFS server is (probably) not properly installed.
no rules in iptables or hosts.allow or hosts.deny. Fresh OS install.
apt-get install --reinstall nfs-kernel-server
generates this output:

It could be related to this bug [URL] but I wonder if the fix goes to the arm-branch as well?
I have never had any trouble setting up NFS before.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI used gparted in PartedMagic to resize my /home partition from 360GB to 160GB, and create a new FAT32 partition out of the remaining 200GB.My /home directory only had about 9GB worth of files in it and as far as I can tell there was no reason for any of them to be anywhere near the portion which was deleted. So the resizing and creating the new partition seemed to go fine. Then I rebooted and it got stuck while booting into Debian.
I tried checking my BIOS for an IOMMU option but there doesn't seem to be one at all. I also only have 4GB of RAM so I don't know why it thinks I have 4.75GB.

Everything was going fine, I went through several package configurations and suddenly, after 30-40 minutes of "Unpacking Setting up."

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm reading about shared, static, and dynamic libraries. What is SDL? Is it static, shared, or dynamic?
I always thought a library would be a lot of .h and .cpp files compiled separately into .o files and then if you compiled your own program you could use the -l parameter to link the library and it was all compiled together. Now I'm not so sure.
I don't even see any SDL .cpp files in my system anywhere. All I have are lots of SDL .h files in /usr/include/SDL and I don't really understand the code in them.
I'm making a wild guess here: SDL is a shared library. SDL itself is NOT compiled into my program, therefore SDL must be on any system my program tries to run on. When I compile and link SDL all it needs is the header files to know what SDL function and objects it can use. And then on every system it uses an already compiled SDL shared library thingy somewhere.
So... where is that part of SDL? All I can find are header files.
I'm thinking the advantage of shared libraries is that someone could say update SDL on their own system and take advantage of the new features without having to download new executables with the new version of SDL compiled into them for every program that uses SDL.
So if I'm making an editor and a game engine and they both use a lot of the same .cpp and .h files that I wrote and I'm tired of updating one and then the other and I need to turn them into a library, then a shared library might be kind of a silly solution. I could just make a static library. Right? Because it's not SDL. Nobody else is ever going to use this library.
I am trying to install debian from a netinst cd. Everything seems to go fine except when the installer needs to connect to a mirror. It doesn't throw up an error, it just hangs a bit and then seems to keep going a lot quicker than i would expect. For example, when installing additional software, it gets stuck downloading the first few files for about 5 mins and then skips ahead and finishes the entire process in about 5 mins.
What I end up with is a very bare bones system when I fist boot into it, without any of the stuff that I had indicated that I wanted to install (ie desktop environment, web server, etc). The Internet connection works and I am able to ping websites including a number of the mirrors I tried during the install. However when using apt-get it just gets stuck trying to connect to the mirror and doesn't go any further.
The announcement of several new make scripts in the 2.6.32 release notes is very exciting.1.8. Easy local kernel configuration.Most people uses the kernel shipped by distros - and that's good. But some people like to compile their own kernels from kernel.org, or maybe they like following the Linux development and want to try it. Configuring your own kernel, however, has become a very difficult and tedious task - there're too many options, and some times userspace software will stop working if you don't enable some key option. You can use a standard distro .config file, but it takes too many time to compile all the options it enables.
To make easier the process of configuration, a new build target has been added: make localmodconfig. It runs "lsmod" to find all the modules loaded on the current running system. It will read all the Makefiles to map which CONFIG enables a module. It will read the Kconfig files to find the dependencies and selects that may be needed to support a CONFIG. Finally, it reads the .config file and removes any module "=m" that is not needed to enable the currently loaded modules. With this tool, you can strip a distro .config of all the unuseful drivers that are not needed in our machine, and it will take much less time to build the kernel. There's an additional "make localyesconfig" target, in case you don't want to use modules and/or initrds.
I'm hoping someone can help me. I upgraded my server from Lenny to Squeeze this afternoon following the release notes at http://www.debian.org I had no issues and everything is still running. I then installed Sqeeze via the Net Install disc into a virtual machine for some testing. Once the install was complete I found that apt was not working. It turned out the sources file was blank. I manually added the official repos and did an update. There were no new packages for installation.
Now, after a reboot, I get the Grub error:
error: ELF header smaller than expected
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
I have no idea why this happened because I've not changed grub, just played around with apt. Has anybody any idea why apt had a blank sources file and grub is now failing?
Using Wicd and it keeps dropping out or telling me "bad password" when the password is in fact correct.

Gnome Network Manager is also present, though I've heard that it doesn't support my particular situation.

If I load the ehci_hcd module, then the printer is fine.But it's not as easy as setting it up so that ehci_hcd is autoloaded at boot, because if that happens then when I turn on the printer I have the same problem.
