Install :: Can't Boot Ubuntu After Installing OpenSUSE / Solve It?
Jan 3, 2010I bought a Linux magazine as a Christmas present attached to it was a 8GB distro-loaded disc sporting Ubuntu 9.10 (which is already on my system,) Mandriver, and open-SUSE 11.2 which I decided to install.
Problem is, I can't get into Ubuntu anymore, where all my mail music ect is.
Ubuntu is listed with vista in window 2 of open-suse grub. When I try to boot Ubuntu I get an earlier kernel splash which is somewhat magnified and busybox v1.1.3. Vista boots OK.
Would un installing openSUSE put things back as they were? I can learn about open-SUSE using the DVD
Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Install Ruby On Rails / Solve This?
Mar 23, 2010I'm trying to install ruby on rails on Ubuntu 9.10. I'm following the instructions on this site:
http://castilho.biz/blog/2009/11/05/...-karmic-koala/
However, when I try to install Rails I get an error code...
It seems like gem can't access http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems/rake-0.8.7.gem for some reason, but when I try to go directly to that address I get the option to download it. Any ideas how to get around this problem?
I'm thinking if I can somehow tell gem to look for the file locally I can download it and install rails that way.
Installation :: Fedora Won't Install Into 4 GB / Solve This?
Jun 25, 2011I usually don't have problems installing Linux but Fedora won't install into 4 GB for me. I get to the partitioner, try to create a 4 GB partition, actually have 7 GB free, but it tells me there is no space on the drive. As I said, I usually don't get this problem but have not tried Fedora before and don't understand.

May 2, 2010My computer has 2 HDDs attached to 1st and 2nd SATA ports of my mobo respectively, the 1st SATA drive is empty while the 2nd have my Windows Vista on it. I also have a Perc/5i RAID card with 2 RAID arrays defined.
I am going to install Ubuntu 10.04 x64 to the 1st SATA driver (I expect it will be /dev/sda), but when I try to install, I found my drives are recognized as below,
/dev/sda > 1st RAID array of my Perc/5i
/dev/sdb > 2nd RAID array of my Perc/5i
/dev/sdc > 1st SATA drive < I need to install ubuntu on this drive
/dev/sdd > 2nd SATA drive
I don't want to install 10.04 as /dev/sdc because I may add more arrays to my raid card which from my experience of 9.04, it will probably change the drive letter of my current /dev/sdc and then system will fail to boot.
Is there any way to force my 1st SATA HDD as /dev/sda during install ?
Ubuntu Installation :: Can No Longer Install Windows On My Laptop / Solve This?
Jul 7, 2010Synopsis: I wiped my system and am using ubuntu 10.04 with no problems *except* that I now need IE 8 and MS Excel/Access/Powerpoint/Word for classwork. I kind of tried toying with WINE, but ultimately would rather just have a dual boot.
What occurs when I try a (any) Windows install (keep in mind I even swapped out a fresh Sata HD and the same problem occured:
Pop in a Windows ISO bootable CD>everything acts normal and I follow the prompts for a fresh install (not an upgrade)> It begins the install but the first part where it is "copying files" just goes to 100% in a split second>Then it moves down to the next prompt of "Expanding Files" at which point the laptop is spinning the disc/reading it but it just stays at 0%.
So, it's not a HD formating problem, right? I wiped the system, reformatted and got the okay from Windows that I could install so I assumed I reformatted it back to NTFS.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Install Stuck Before Start Of Partitioner / Solve This?
Aug 13, 2010Trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a HP 6540b laptop - dual boot with Windows 7. I keep getting stuck on:
1. [GUI install] after step 3 of 7 where a KB layout (I've tried many other layout) is selected then going next and it hangs there trying to do something.
2. [Alternative install] stuck on 45% of scanning disks at "Starting up the partitioner" code...
I've tried desktop 32bit and 64bit install and also alternative 32 and 64. Also tried installing from CD & USB drive.
I guess it's something to do with the disk partition? Anyone come across this before?
I've installed 10.04 with similar dual boot partitions layout on an older HP 6710b without any issues.

Networking :: Can't Install Mac80211 Framework / Solve This?
Jan 26, 2011I tried installing the mac80211 framework on ubuntu 10.10 but after i install it and restart my system , none of my network connections work.
i found a solution to that problem which is a very weird solution. because none of the network connections are working . i try to activate the wireless driver from the System->Administration->Additional Drivers. But it fails , but after it fails my wired network connection comes back online. and then i have acccess to the internet . After that i activate the wireless driver again and it works.
This is obviously the worst possible solution ever. So what i don't understand is why the mac80211 framework is causing these problems. after applying my "solution" i thought of checking the modules installed on my system using lsmod and i see mac80211 there. i don't understand why it is still there after i executed the "sudo make uninstall" command . code...

Red Hat / Fedora :: RPM Install Script Fails On Root Change / What To Solve It?
Mar 4, 2011I am working with Rhel 5.5. I am creating rpms and I have an issue. I want to bzip up the file before I make the rpm. Then I want to unzip it at install time. I add the zip up work to the %prep tag and added the unzip to the %prerun tag of the SPEC file. Everything works fine.
Then I install the rpm to a different folder with rpm -i --root /tmp for example and the scripts fail to run because the script can't find /bin/sh.
It makes sense because rpms are dependent on the absolute paths to the file, but I want to know how to still have the scripts run. I tried to put the /bin/sh in the /tmp folder (in the example above) but it still can't find it. And yes i do have /bin/sh on the system.

General :: Cannot Get Moonlight To Run Properly On Ubuntu 9.10 Firefox / Solve It?
Feb 4, 2010Ubuntu 9.10 - Firefox 3.5.5 - Dell Latitude D600 Lap top.
Can anyone view any of the movie content on this page?
http://www.universalsports.com/cycling/video/index.html
When I try to view one it starts and then just turns white. Then Firefox crashes. I have no clue what is going on with it.
Oddly I have no problem viewing the Silverlight content on this page:
http://www.blacksburg.gov/Index.aspx?page=513
Or many other Silverlight pages. I've seen this happen not only on the above page but other Silverlight content.
So anyone experience the same thing? I'm guessing there is some code on the web page that triggers a bug or something.

General :: Eclipse Crashes While Running / Solve This?
Jun 17, 2010I'm having a problem with eclipse, it keeps crashing while I'm working working with it, running from the terminal i found this:
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment code...
i have googled and i found a ubuntu forum where a guy had the same problem, his solution was disabling the php browser, so i try to do it and go to window>preferences>General>Web browser... as soon as i click "web browser" it just crashes with the same error above, so i guess the "browser" is the problem, i didn't find the "php browser" option so that's why i click on "web browser"
if anybody has a solution for this please help me, i would be awesome to solve this.
