I made a clone of my ordinary disk with Clonezilla some times ago. Now I want to access some files on that cloned disk. Since the cloned disk also has a LVM structure I don't know how to mount it. When I connect the cloned disk I can see both /dev/sdb1 & sdb2. vgdisplay -v gives me:

I have a hp laptop with two internal drives and I also have a large USB drive. When I boot normally the internal boot drive is /dev/sda, the second internal drive is /dev/sdb, and the USB drive is /dev/sdc. I used Acronis True image to clone the internal boot drive onto the USB drive. I would like to be able to boot the Fedora 12 instance on the USB drive but do not seem to be having much luck... Here is what I have tried so far... The following is an entry in grub.conf
title Fedora (2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686.PAE)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686.PAE ro root=UUID=101b1556-d097-4d85-9bc5-fac2f9abe5d8 LANG=en_US.UTF-8

and tried to boot....Got a no such device error.While in grub I tried the grub command setup (hd2) and then got in the bios and set the boot order to USB drive before internal drive.In this case a reboot does nothing I just get a flashing cursor, grub is not entered.
I have a strange problem. I have to clone my MAC address (and specify a different MAC address) to get internet. Without the new MAC address I get an IP address but no internet. This happened with my old (updated from 7.04 -> 10.10) OS installation and with a new, clean install of 11.04. So I have a workaround. But I don't know what the problem is.
Ps. I recently switch modem and router. And I had the problem with old and new modem/router combinations.
Simple question, which implies lot of complexity, unfortunately : how to install Clonezilla and mount multi-partitions cloned image disk under DEBIAN ?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am dual booting OpenSUSE and Windows 7 Pro x64. Each OS is installed on a separate 1Tb hard drive. One question that I have tried to Google for a solution with no success is, how do you access ext4 from Windows? Shortly after I installed OpenSUSE, my OpenSUSE hard drive "vanished" from Windows 7. aturally, I can access all my hard drives from OpenSUSE, which does support the NTFS. I am quite sure that I am not the only person who has this problem as I know that dual booting Linux and Windows is quite common.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed F11 x86 from the DVD onto one of my machines using a total of 4 partitions:
1. /boot
2. /
3. /home
4. swap
I then created an image of the first 3 partitions with fsarchiver and restored it onto a second machine (with different hardware). Grub was loaded onto the second machine as well without a problem. The new cloned install will get past grub fine but the kernel hangs. After removing 'rhgb quiet' from the boot options, I can see that the last message outputted to the console is something about the PS/2 mouse - this doesn't make sense as the mouse is working perfectly fine.
Additionally, I can still reboot using ctrl-alt-delete so the kernel/CPU must still be responsive. I have tried troubleshooting the various pieces of hardware, so I'm guessing it's something with the clone. All the cloned filesystems appear to be fully intact; the partition UUID's are all the same. I've even tried changing the UUID's both in grub and /etc/fstab to hardcoded /dev/sdaX , but this does not fix anything.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI am investigating full disk encryption and have made a DD copy of the hard drive which has been encrypted, this DD file is stored on my computer for analysis.
First question is - Anyone know how i can access data in this DD file even though its been encrypted?
Second question - Is there a DD command where i can image the systems memory? I ask this because when a system is turned on, to get past the pre-boot authentication stage you need a password. From what i understand, this password will be passed in to ram when power is applied to the system. Making a copy of the memory will also copy the password?
I am not a programmer so, with scripts I am cold.I need this.When I plug in USb external disk, a files and folders are automatically copied from one folder on fedora, to my USB disk. And if files or folder are already on USB disk, it skips copying. So it copies only new files and folders.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI set up nginx on a VM somewhere and everything is working fine. Then I tried to build some directory structure under the nginx root HTML folder. I received 403 forbidden for a file so normally I assumed permissions. Using root I gave entire dir structure chmod -R a+r /usr/share/ngnix/html/myfolder. Still 403.
Then I SFTP'd into this box using a didcated web FTP account. I am not that experienced to be able to tell how is this user set nor which permissions it has, but by default it can view all directories in the system. When navigating to the HTML root I could see myfolder but when going inside I was seeing nothing. No subfolder, no files. needless to say ls -al from bash on any of these is giving me rwxr--r-- for all files and directories.
if I copy some arbitrary file from within the myfolder dir to html root and give it a+r it IS accessible from web and SFTP. If this were only a 403 I would assume something I am not configuring properly on nginx, but since SFTP is showing same behavior I am led to believe it is something in the directories themselves!? What else is there besides file permissions?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble with Debian 8 and using my dual monitor setup. Whenever I install a desktop that uses lightdm as a display manager (XFCE, MATE, Cinnamon) the login screen is cloning the two monitors rather then extending the desktop. I don't have the issue with gnome 3 (gdm) or kde (kdm). I tried installing Slim as well, but that has the same cloning issue.
I had a similar issue with g the XFCE environment, but I was able to resolve it by installing arandr and configuring the monitor layout. Upgrading from Stable to Testing also fixed the XFCE issue with the newest version of XFCE. Unfortunately I still have the display manager issue (lightdm/slim) in Testing as well. I would prefer to use XFCE but I'm willing to move to Gnome 3/KDE if need be to resolve the issue with the login screen.
I had cloned my 250 GB HD to a new 1 TB HD using 'dd'. After that Ubuntu does not login. The MBR [Grub] and Windows 7 do start without any problem and all the programs are working perfect under it. When I boot to Ubuntu, the login screen just keeps displaying 'Automatically logging in...'. On the first boot from the cloned HD, Ubuntu displayed that the /home is not found and offered Check/Skip/Ignore and I selected Check. After that the message is not shown. Another weird thing is that at logon, the system does a log off and display a warning that the Power Manager Applet is not responding and asks for Log off anyway.
I have the old HDD intact with me.
I have 10.10 on an old 60GB hard disk in an external USB caddy so I can boot off this when I want to instead of Windows on the internal laptop hard disk. This works well, and has done for some time.
I recently got a 1TB portable USB drive and thought it would be cool to reserve the 1st 60GB for a clone of the 10.10 system and use that instead. So I set up 2 partitions exactly like the 2 partitions on my old disk (not forgetting the boot flag) and copied the contents with dd. I also used dd to copy the boot sector excluding the partition table (dd if= of= bs=446 count=1; dd if= of= bs=512 skip=1 seek=1 count=2047).
I work in a library and want to set up several newer PCs. I cloned a HD containing Ubuntu 9.10 using Clonezilla. When I put the HD in another computer (exactly the same as the one on which I did the cloning) it will not boot.
After pressing the power button, it proceeds as follows:
BIOS loads "Grub Loading" appears on screen for several seconds Ubuntu icon appears for several seconds Icon disappears and then nothing, blank screen
Regarding Clonezilla, I used the advanced screens but chose only the default settings.
Also, if I boot to the Clonezilla CD on the cloned computer, I can choose the HD and the OS loads without a problem.

I am trying to install Fedora 10 on an old P3 Inspiron 5000. When I boot from the Live cd the screen is split into three sections and is hard to navigate. I am able to edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and log out and log back in to proceed with the installation. The problem is when I finish the installation and reboot to the new OS it boots to the triple section mode again because my xorg.conf is not edited. To do any commands in Fedora I need to get through a brief user setup in which I cannot navigate through until I can see the screen better. Is there a way to boot to a graphical type safe mode so I can see the whole screen to finish the installation?
How can I access folders from the live cd to edit the installed files? This way I can edit the xorg.conf file before booting and all would be legible.
I've been searching around and from what I've found this is supposed to just work but I am having some display issues when cloning my laptop to an external monitor. I think the problem is that my laptop has a better resolution than the monitor. Here is my setup:
laptop with a display of 1900x1200
external monitor with a display of 1680x1050
ideally I want to clone the laptops output onto the external monitor so they can both operate in their native resolution. When I setup twinview and set it to clone the laptop displays correctly, however, the external monitor is missing a large chunk on the bottom and right hand side
here's my xorg.conf
