View 3 Replies View Relatedmy partitioning layout was as follows
Vista Recovery
Windows 7
GRUB
Extended
-->Fedora 12 (ext4)
so, I shrunk my recovery in Windows 7 successfully, and booted into my Fedora 12 live cd to run Gparted, and move the partitions so that the free space could go towards fedora, I did such, and then I couldn't expand the partition to my dismay. Next, I woke up this morning, tried to boot to fedora to run SSH, grub loaded, but when I tried to boot fedora, I got the "File system check failed" error, and when I tried 7, it just went to a blank screen with a single "_" in the top left-hand corner.
I've been having a problem updating for the last few days. Everytime I try "yum update" it downloads the packages I need and when it tries to install them it stops because of this errors:Quote:

When installing Fedora 10 or 11 Alpha, I get the following message when attempting to install the entire root filesystem (including /boot) to a vfat partition:"Error with Partitioning.The following critical errors exist with your requested partitioning scheme. These errors must be corrected prior to continuing with your install of Fedora.

I have installed Fedora10 on my PC which had an XP. Now Fedora waits just 2-3 seconds to press any key to choose between XP and Fedora. Actually if I don't press any key it automatically begins Fedora. How can I increase this time interval?

So 2 days ago everything was all fine on my machine. Has been for about a month, but all of a sudden as of yesterday I have no sound, I am seeing IRQ interupts on boot, During boot I am seeing file system is not clean, , and swap space is being used for the first time while doing normal task, etc. These are 2 new hard drives in RAID 1 with ReiserFS. I should have used a newer FS but thats a whole other argument.
Anyways here we go.
The system is Debian Lenny amd64
Physical RAM 4GB + 6GB swap

View 10 Replies View RelatedI converted all of my vinyl to flac format, but when I played them in mplayer, the volume was way lower than the mp3's that I downloaded. So, when I have them all in the playlist, I'll have my flac file at a good volume, then an mp3 comes on and blasts me. Is there a command line program that I can use where I can specify a new volume for the flac files? I wanted a command line program so that I can script this entire process. I do not want to sacrifice the quality of the songs that I encoded (at 96kHz).

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy new system build is nearly complete and I will be formatting it in about an hour and installing the OS's. I am running a 64 bit quadcore system and plan to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 7 Ultimate. However, I am torn on which filesystem to use.
I have been out of the PC craze for the past 2 years familiarizing myself with the mechanics and modifications of fast cars. Now that I have returned, much has changed that I am left to catch up with so I'm coming here for a quick answer.I am running a 1TB RAID 10 array, and do not want to split drivespace evenly for each OS. Which approach would a better idea? Should I use NTFS or EXT3? My plans for the machine are Ubuntu for everyday computing and any games that will run natively on linux.
Windows 7 will be reserved for any games that run on windows In fact, gaming is the ONLY reason I am not switching solely to a linux machine. Now, obviously each operating system and It's programs will be installed and run on It's own native filesystem NTFS for windows and EXT3 for Ubuntu. But I am torn as to which filesystem to store everything else on. Should movies, music and games be stored on an EXT3 or NTFS filesystem?curious as to the CPU utilization, access time and overall performance of both EXT3 from within windows and NTFS from within linux. Music and movies aren't really a concern but the one thing I would put emphasis on is how much would system performance be impacted when running a native linux game from within linux but on an NTFS filesystem? so, I am leaning towards EXT3 but what are the benefits of one over the other
