Fedora Installation :: Cannot Uncheck Usb Drive
Aug 17, 2010
im installing fedora13. I need to install it as multi boot. I used a live cd to load up the live version of fedora on my computer and i started the installation setup. The problems im facing are: I cannot uncheck my usb drive when the setup asks me where do i need to install fedora. When i select "shrink current system" it shows my hard drive but says it has 0 bytes. I cannot proceed further because of the above problems.

In KPackageKit I can't uncheck the 'Proposed updates' or the 'Unsupported updates' boxes in the 'Kubuntu updates' section of the 'Updates' tab of the 'Software Sources' window (brought up by clicking on the 'Edit Origins' button in the 'Settings' tab of 'KPackageKit'). [URL]

In Fedora 14, is there a setting in Configuration Editor that you can't uncheck, to uncheck Keep Aligned in right click desktop? Or, is there a piece of code that destroys that indelible check? When that box is unchecked, it's back on the next boot. It always messes up my desktop icons.

I'm messing with a JTree, I need one that has checkboxes to check/uncheck options, and (later) textboxes to edit options....but for now, the checkboxes don't wanna play. Here's the source:
package Habitat.EnvCtrl;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;import MailPopper.hlprs.CheckBoxNode;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.util.Vector;
import javax.swing.JDesktopPane;
import javax.swing.JInternalFrame;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JTree;
import javax.swing.tree.DefaultMutableTreeNode;
import javax.swing.tree.TreeNode; .....
The rtree builds (albeit I have a superfluous extra checkbox in there I don't know where it comes from...) but I cannot check/uncheck any boxes.

I had F10 installed, then was tempted to download F11 (Leonidas). I was not happy with the OS, so I reinstalled F10.Now I cannot get my CD-RW Drive or DVD Rom Drive to operate fully. I can open documents saved in a CD but I cannot get any sound from music discs.They were working in the first F10. The icons are showing in "Computer" and appear ok in the Bios. I have tried disconnecting them both, rebooting, then reconnecting, without success. The details are:- Lite-on-CD-RW Drive & DVD Rom Drive unit- Pioneer.

Just installed 5.3/gnome.I am on pc/desktop with only wired internet connection via routerto dsl-modem. The OS sets-up the "eth0" automatically.For just this type of setup what services can I disable and uncheck ? In System>Admin.>Services I unchecked and disabled bluetooth,isdn,pcscd and sshd. Should I disable sendmail, avahi-daemon, portmap,rpcidmapd,rpcgssd and.apmd(no laptop)? Goal is to minimize unneeded services and improve security. The wiki article on securing CentOS did not cover this.Under System>Security Level Configuration I allow ftp,Mail(smtp), and WWW(HTTP). Is the ftp allowed ok for my pc/desktop?

I've run in to a weird problem where i cant uncheck the "pre-released updates" box...I had recently checked it to get a glimpse at what kinds of updates would be available with the option checked so i tried it and updated my repository. The problem is now i cant uncheck it again or any of the options for that matter. Is there a way to reset the repository settings to default?
I also would like to know if kde keeps a history of installed packages..since i couldnt uncheck the box i went ahead and installed everything thinking it might let me uncheck it afterwards (stupid i know), but seeing as how im pretty newbie, i dont want to take the chances of some package breaking
the box im referring to can be found here code...

I am creating an openSUSE 11.2 Kiosk image. I have everything pretty much locked down but when I go into the gconf-editor under /apps/nautilius/preferences/show_desktop and uncheck the check box my mouse pointer changes to the circle icon that looks like it moves in a circle. Sortta like the busy or what it does during boot. Hard to describe by typing it out but if you make that change you'll see what I am talking about. I had this setup like this in previous versions of openSUSE so I am not sure what it is doing or what else I need to do to make the mouse pointer just the arrow like normally. I don't want the users to be able to right-click on the desktops to get a menu nor add icons so unchecking the show_desktop has served my needs.

I have been having some issues with Ubuntu One. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick. For some reason, Nautilus tells me that Ubuntu's default Videos folder (there is data in this folder) is synced on Ubuntu One when it is not. I have checked on the Ubuntu One website, and the site says the Videos folder is not synced (Ubuntu One's website does not show the Videos folder under "my synced folders"). When I attempt to uncheck the sync option in Nautilus, the loader next to it spins endlessly, or Nautilus gives me an error that it can not sync the folder.

Trying to install Fedora 12 using the 6 CDs. Trying to install on an older x86 box.Problem is that when detecting my hard drive, Fedora 12 recognizes it as a sda hard drive instead of hda hard drive. I have no SCSI connected to my computer what so ever. It's an old fashion PATA Western Digital hard drive.If I proceed with the install, Fedora 12 only installs 200MB of the OS from the first CD only. No options for additional software or anything.

I have a Western Digital Pasport 320 GB hard drive. I wanted to create a live installation on it like a USB stick. I wanted it to serve as a portable OS that I could use to boot any other computer off of, and use it for diagnostics and anti-virus scanning on Windows based computers. The additional space is for my own personal use, kind of like having a mobile desktop where I have all of my documents in one place.What I need to know is how to set up Fedora 11 so that the hard drive will boot on most PCs regardless of their architecture. I also need to know what's a good Anti-virus to install onto it for the sake of fixing Windows hard drives.
Please keep in mind I'm a noob when it comes down to a lot of things, so if there's an antivirus I have to install manually, please included a step by step.

Background is this: Laptop has an internal h/d (obviously) so I removed it from laptop. Then set Bios to boot from external h/d. Installed Fedora 11 on ext. h/d no swap partition as drive already has 4 partitions. Fedora ran lovely!! I then replaced internal hard drive but left bios to boot from external hard drive. Boot screen for fedora came up, hit enter and fedora started loading. The little balloon started filling up, got to a quarter full and then screen went black. Had to reboot to get going again,same thing happened. Can anybody tell me what may be causing it,i.e. black screen. Fedora boots up and runs lovely with internal h/d removed. Any help very gratefully received. M/c has intel dual core processor, 3 gig of ram.

Im taking the class now in college once a week. My professor said that we need to install any Linux operating systems so I chose Fedora, but he said we need at least 16GB free of space to install it in our computer, sadly i only have 1GB space left remaining. I told him about it and he told me about installing Fedora in my flash drive that has space of 16GB. I really am interested in this course and want to understand all of this stuff so can anyone tell me the process to install Fedora into flash drive so I can boot it anywhere else other than home? Also since he said I need 16GB to install it don't I got to buy 32GB flash drive at least?

We've just taken delivery of a new CD/DVD-less Acer PC. I need to install Fedora 12 on it.I've created a bootable usb drive using netinst.iso and it begins the installation. I was expecting it to ask me where to find the installation media on the network (I have a local repository on an intranet server with a copy of the F12 orginal DVD package set and a mirror of the updates repo).Instead, I get an error saying that it cannot find the installation, yet it never asks where to look.

I have installed F11 on a secondary partition on an external hard drive (secondary drive is M:, I have put F11 on X: )
I also said to put the MBR (or maybe it's the grub stuff) on that partition with F11. I used ext3 as my Linux file system type.
But when I boot from that drive or even boot normally, I come back to Windows automatically.
I don't want to mess with my C: drive at all plus I want to keep most of that M: drive away from Linux.

I've been trying to get Fedora 11 (x86_64, netinst) installed on my machine, but am having trouble with the hard drive selection and partitioning. This machine has 2 x 320GB hard drives. One for Windows, and one for Linux of course.
When I first tried the install, both hard drives were attached to the computer. I was expecting to see the drives seperately so that I could partition and install on only one of the drives, but device mapper kicked in and showed me a single 640GB long partition. Not very helpful in my case.
I decided to simply unplug the Windows drive so that fedora didn't see the two identical drives and so would not try to map them. However, with only the linux drive plugged in, the installer doesn't see it. There are no hard drives to select from in the installer.
As a test, I plugged in the windows drive solely and unplugged the linux drive, and low-and-behold, fedora sees the windows drive. This is getting slightly confusing at this point as both the hard drives are identical. I can't see why the installer would recognise one but not the other. Yet it recognises the extra 320GB of hard drive space if both drives are plugged in and device mapper tries to raid them. I tried the debian installer to see if it had the same problem, but it was able to see and install on this drive. I would have tried OpenSUSE as well but this computer doesn't have a DVD drive.
I haven't tried a "nodmraid" boot option yet, so I am going to try that tonight, but I'm interested to hear what the community thinks of this problem.
System Specs:
DFI LANParty UT NF680i LT SLI-T2R
Intel Q6600
Corsair XMS2-800 2x2GB
2 x Seagate Barracuda 320GB
I've also had a 640GB plugged in that was detected fine (probably because dm didn't try to raid it being the odd hdd out) but has been removed while I'm troubleshooting the fedora install.

Listed are the steps and the issue:
1. Downloaded the Fedora-11-i386-DVD.iso in windows m/c
2. Used the liveusb-creator
3. Plugged the USB drive in the m/c where the Fedora needs to be installed. (This m/c does not have an OS)
4. The BIOS sensed the drive.
5. Selected the installation option from the menu
6. Proceeded with the installation steps and created the partitions
7. Got the error:
"Missing ISO 9660 image The installer has tried to mount image #1, ..."

I just switched to Fedora (from Ubuntu) and can't seem to get Fedora to automount my old drive (which is my old Ubuntu drive). I tried the following with no luck (in fact, when I did this, it chocked during boot and went into emergency mode:
In /etc/fstab, I entered:
/dev/sdc /media/UBUNTU_DRIVE defaults 0 0
Another odd thing is the UBUNTU_DRIVE directory just disappears after reboot (and I know it was there before rebooting).
I have two additional drives in my tower, and both do show up in gparted, so I'm not sure why they're not getting mounted.
Why can't Fedora auto mount secondary (internal drives) automatically?
What can I do to tell it to auto mount the secondary drives (I have two) automatically?

There are 3 IDE drives in this box.
hda has Debian Lenny installed (with swap) and is to remain.
hdb1 has a linux distro on it.
hdb2 is a data partition and is to remain.
No other partitions on hdb.
HDD is data only (not really relevant but mentioned for completeness)
The system boots via Grub from MBR on hda.
I'm trying to install F10-i686-KDE-LiveCD on hdb1 but F10 won't allow it without modifying the partition tables which will, of course, wipe my data on hdb2. hdb seems to be a happy disk; e2fsck shows it clean and both partitions open properly in Konqueror within the LliveCD.

I am trying to put Fedora 10 on an old machine in the basement, which does not have a DVD drive, so I downloaded the CD images from BitTorrent to my upstairs machine (running Fedora 10). I burned all 7 disks, but when I go to install and run the disk test, disc 2 always says it has errors. I have burned three different disks from two different downloads, and tested each twice. Is there something different about Disk 2?
I am not a pro, and in fact am pretty new to Fedora and Linux. I assume I am doing something wrong, but I cannot figure out what it is.
