I need to install an aplication to several machines. The aplication runs on a Debian and the installation process is done with a usb. I'm using a plop live usb to perform the installation. I've seen that with plop , once the live system is on, i can run some scripts.
What I'm trying to do is:
->format the target device (a 4G compact flash).
->mount the formatted device.
->untar my debian.tar.gz in that device.
After rebooting, the system never boots.
Using a live CD and invoking "fdisk -lu" :

Ubuntu 10.10 32 bit/ and /storage are on two different partitions. I want to move my home directory to the /storage partition, so I went to System -> Administration -> Users and Groups then Advanced Settings then the Advanced tab. I changed Home Directory from /home/billy to /storage/home/billy. I click on ok and I'm asked if I want to copy all the user's files over to the new location or start fresh. I click, Copy Files. It acts like it's doing something, but all it does is create the home/billy directories inside /storage, but it never copies files over and the next time I go to /home/billy it's still in the old location. What the heck is the deal?

I've recently installed Ubuntu server 10.10 on an older Pentium 3 computer to test the capabilities of Ubuntu and to have more experience with the OS. During my install, the network card, a Kingston KNE100TX, was successfully detected however auto configuration failed. This was tried against a Windows 2k3 DHCP server as well as a Cradlepoint router. As expected, since no DHCP server provided an address, the routing table is empty.
I retried configuring the Kingston card with a static IP address. This time as expected, ifconfig showed the IP address that was assigned and the route table had been populated. Attempting to ping my gateway, 192.168.17.1, resulted in Destination Host Unreachable. The same results were encountered when the configuration was changed to a different network.

The error message I keep getting during mounting is:-
device-mapper: remove ioctl failed: Device or resource busy
This is from ane external USB HDD I use as a backup device. I've tried formatting it as ext4 ane encrypting it from the command line
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1
# cryptestup luksFormat /dev/sdc1
which run without errors but an attempt to mount throws up the above error as well as saying - you must specify the file type (tried that) - and fails to mount. I've tried using YaST to format and encrypt it which throws up the same error when I run mount but actually does actually mount the filesystem Googling around has brought up info saying that it's probably a race condition brought on by invalid udev rules. I've got a (mostly) working system and the udev rules documentation leaves more confused than when I started.

Been digging around and not finding anything that quite works.
Background: I had an existing 10.10 install and 10.04 on another partition. When I installed the 10.04 I told it to use the existing /home partition which is also being used by the 10.10 install. All good, both users have directories with all their data in the same /home partition.
Issue: So, as the 10.04 was 32bit (experimenting but another story) I decided I would replace with 10.04 64bit. All went well except when I did the manual partitioning I screwed up and instead of setting the existing /home partition to 'use but don't format' - which I think is what I must have done last time - I left it as 'don't use and don't format'. So, obviously, now the new 10.04 install has its /home inside /, which I don't want. I want it on the existing /home partition as it was with the previous 10.04 install.
Question(s): Is there any simple(ish) way of doing this without a reinstall? Not a major problem as I have only just installed and can do it again without losing anything but time, but I would like to figure out a way to do it without if possible.I want to essentially move the /home/user directory (rather than the /home) and make it /media/home/user inside the existing partition. Seems easy enough on the surface but becomes involved as I investigate.Ubuntu 10.04 minimal install with Xfce DE.

I was trying to install ubuntu 9.10 as a dual boot system with windows and I recieved this error message: The Grub package failed to install into /target/. Without the Grub boot loader, the installed system will not boot
This Error comes up after 94% of the install. I also cannot seem to get the side by side install option to work (sometimes this option appears sometimes it does not) I am not sure but I beleive seome of the install files have been placed on the hard drive because I only get the option now to install on the hard drive and totally wipe clean or the emptiest hard drive. So how would I get the possible Ubuntu install off the Hard drive. I have used this CD to Install before it has no scratches therefore should work. Also If I have Win Xp on a Raid 0 will the Ubuntu 9.10 install ?

What I am trying to do is edit the link target to force ip=xxxx.xxx.xxx string at end. I have a software program which access 4 different servers running the software but with different configs. In xp I can copy links and modify as above to correctly force the program to the various servers.
I have read the various how tos on hard vs sym links which I get. Playing around with hardlinks and sysmlinks (the examples I find) does not seem to be what I need. Feel like this is pretty basic stuff but I am a bit stumped.

I've read hundreds of threads on this problem but they seem to be intermittent and the resolution has been using a different kernel version.
I'm using the latest kernel but I still have this problem
Running Logical Volume Manager gui and attempting to extend the volume results in the same error.

I noticed this message "hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4" appear before the kernel says "no resume image found loading normal init" or something along these lines. Basically what I mean is, this message shows up whenever the kernel loads. So I checked if anything is logged in /var/log/messages (are messages like these logged???), did not find anything in the log.
I then used this command, which showed up the message I was looking for.
dmesg | grep -i enumerate [ 2.379748] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4
My USB mouse and other USB hard drives are working fine, without any problem. I just wanted to know if this is some kind of bug. I did some search I found this link , [URL], where this kind of bug was discussed. Looks like they closed the bug.
here is my lspci output:

Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 I'm trying to manually mount my digital camera. Picasa recognizes the device and imports pictures. However, I'd like to access my device manually as there are small video files I'd like to retrieve. It's for a fujifilm Z33 WP digicam.
Code:
$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 010: ID 04cb:01f5 Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd
Bus 005 Device 004: ID 046d:c012 Logitech, Inc. Mouseman Dual Optical
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 413c:0058 Dell Computer Corp. Port Replicator
[code]....
In Picasa...where it says "Select Device", it finds
Code:
USB PTP Class Camera@usb:
and
Code:
USB PTP Class Camera@usb:005,010
selecting either one of them can access the camera directly. How can I pinpoint my device and mount it using the regular mount /mnt/point/ /path/to/my/cam?

I have a problem defining persistent device naming on a Debian Lenny server.I have:RAID1 controller on the server machine with two SCSI disks.external storage with RAID5. I have / mount on the first partition on the server SCSI disk and /storage mount on the external storage.
I'm experiencing a problem: The system recognizes the system disk (RAID 1), as sda or sdb - randomly.I want: To control the recognition, and tell the system that sda (sda1) will always be the system disk.The motivation: GRUB is configured to work with sda, and when the system disk doesn't, boot process fails, and I end up in the initramfs shell-like interface.

I have a problem with my WiFi HP LaserJet P1102w printer. I can add the printer, but whenever I try to print anything, say, HP testpage, I get the following errors:
Code: Select allerror: Unable to communicate with device (code=12): hp:/net/HP_LaserJet_Professional_P_1102w?ip=192.168.1.6
error: Unable to print to printer. Please check device and try again.
error: Unable to communicate with printer HP_LaserJet_Professional_P_1102w. Please check the printer and try again.
I'm using current testing repos and the system is updated.
The printer is detected and installed via hp-setup, it just doesn't print.
This setup used to work, but I haven't printed anything in a while so can't be sure what caused it to stop working: updates, recent power outage or something else.
Printer is using a static IP address.
What works:
Printing over USB works.
Printing over WiFi from a different, Windows, PC works.
Pinging the printer (connected over a WiFi router) works. Also, opening the printer admin page works.
What I've tried:
Restarting everything.
Purging all hplip packages and reinstalling.
Installation log: [URL] ....
hp-check: [URL] .....
I'm stuck.

I have just put together a new computer using an Intel i3-550 64 bit processor, and installed Windows (first), then Ubunutu 10.04. A separate /home partition was created. The hdd in this computer is formatted ext4.
Now I want to move my /home partition from my old 8.04 computer (32 bit, formatted ext3) which also has a separate /home partition.
Both are connected to a lan, but so far I have not been able to connect from one to the other.
I have done lots of googling on this and am astonished at the apparent complexity involved. There seem to be issues involving whether or not the /home partition in the old computer is in use, user permissions, and I don't know what all else.
Assuming that neither the ext3 on the old and ext4 on the new, nor the 32 bit on the old and the 64 bit on the new are not issues, how do I go about moving the /home from the old to the new? If possible, I would like to use a GUI rather than the command line, but if it is necessary to use the command line, please specify where one needs to be located in the file hierarchy in order to give the designated commands. I am not very knowledgeable about using the terminal.

I'm trying to move the /var/www dir to another partition (another hard drive even, though I doubt that makes a difference) because my file system partition is rather small. But when I do I get "403 -forbidden" and in the logs "Permission denied: /home/www/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable". If I move it anywhere within the partition (and adjust the conf) I don't get this problem. Using Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop x64. I haven't had any problems with this in earlier Ubuntu-versions.

I would like to move the /home directory to a different location, there only seem to be guides on how to move it to it's own partition.
I have a drive (/dev/sda5) mounted as /media/data
I would like to move /home to /media/data/home?
I have tried usermod but get the following error:
Code:
test@TestServer:/media/data$ sudo mkdir /media/data/home
test@TestServer:/media/data$ ls
home lost+found
test@TestServer:/media/data$ sudo usermod -dm /media/data/home
usermod: user '/media/data/home' does not exist

There was a Toshiba Satellite notebook with XP I decided to install Fedora 13 in dual boot mode.So, I booted with Gparted and shrunk the ndows XP partition to just 24 GB.Then I set up partitions for Linux this way/boot, ext4 256 MB/, ext4 16 GB/home, ntfs 176 GBswap, 8 GBI intentionally left about 8 GB left just in caseThen I proceeded to install Fedora 13.I used the customized mode to use the already set up partitions and keep Windows XP.At the moment of setting the mounting points, fine with /boot, / and swap. But Anaconda wouldn't accept mounting point for /home.I went on anyway.Fedora got set up and run moothly.However, /home resided in / with only 10 GB left.And the /home partition could be seen as a separate disk with its 176 GB.This is /etc/fstab:
