View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Won't Read Most Discs?
Dec 9, 2010I have several old poweredge 2450 servers I bought recently, used. I have made several Ubuntu 8.04 or 8.04.4 server cds. They all hang on the packages.gz file trying to install. I used the check disc function on the 2450s and it can't read the file, it thinks it is corrupt, though it works fine on a more modern computer.have tried several similar computers. I have burned to CD-R and CD-RW. I have burned at 8x (slowest on my drive).I have checked the MD5. I just don't understand why these computers won't read this disc properly. Or several other discs, like SMS server or tiny core. Won't read them either. Oh, but it reads Ubuntu 10.10 server just fine, installs ok, well slowly, but it works.

Jun 7, 2011I am trying to install various software on my new laptop with 11.04, the problem is some software has 2 or more disks.
When I had 10.10, after I installed disk 1 I would right click and select unmount disk and then insert the second disk and select mount disk and it would install. Now I see on 11.04 there's no option and it doesn't matter how I install software, wine or not, it won't read the second disk.
Ubuntu :: Getting Programs From Fedora Install Discs
Jan 6, 2010I am fairly new to ubuntu and linux in general but have bee experimenting for a little while. As part of that experimentation I ended up with a set of fedora 11 install cd's except for disc 4 which had a faulty image.The fedora cd's have some programs that may be handy in setting up a server. This prompts my thoughts to turn to getting the programs off the fedora cd's and installing them on ubuntu.Both are a gnome desktop environment, and there are a whole heap of files with names that look to me like files for part of a serious installation.
is it possible to use the ubuntu installer program to look at these and then install only some which I can't do if I just look at the filenames.
Ubuntu :: DVD Drive Won't Mount Or Load Discs?
Mar 6, 2010unable to mount cdrom0 mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist
I know the drive is hooked up via SATA.
It has worked before, and I have no idea why it isn;t working now. And I have made no BIOS changes since it worked once. The only change is I installed the newest kernal, that I can think of.
I ran accross someone asking someone with a similar problem to run:
ls /dev | grep cd
so I did and I get: andrew@andrew-desktop:~$ ls /dev | grep cd pktcdvd
Ubuntu :: How To Scan Discs With Gnome Catalog
May 18, 2010I had used Discs cataloguing software on the Mac and Windows too, so I'm not new to the concept. However I'm a total rookie when it comes to Linux and Gnome Catalog
Once you have created a new catalog, and a disk inside it (I guess), how do you get Gnome Catalog to perform the actual scanning of the discs? I just don't see any button or menu command for it anywhere
Ubuntu :: CD / DVD Creator Non-successful With Burning Discs
Jun 12, 2010I know, as of 2008, no support, but I'm wanting LTS so I'm trying to get Ubuntu 10. I'm trying to use 7.04,s CD/DVD creator to burn the Iso to a CD. I've tried desktop, and alternate, both by bittorrent, and every time I attempt to burn to a disc, it takes 10 minutes with useless spinning, saying "Preparing to write disc" and then it stops, locking the CD drive and having me to restart the system to get it running again. I've run on 2.0x, 1.0x, and 8.0x, all failing. I could really use help. I'm running a Dell Dimension 4500S, Pentium 4, 512MB ram, with a Cyberdrive CW058D CD-R/RW, SCSI, and IS a burner.

Jul 1, 2010I installed mysql on my fedora system via a tar download and install instructions. Its working fine.
I wanted to install mysql workbench which is rpm based and it reported that there were some dependencies one of which was mysql. I guess the rpm utility could not see the mysql prorgram since mysql as not installed via rpm mode.
I have 5 discs of the fedora 12 installation. Can someone let me know if the mysql rpm exists on one of these discs and how do I install ONLY the Mysql package on the fedora 12 system that I already have via rpm mode.
Hardware :: DVD-RW Drive Not Reading Discs?
Apr 22, 2011Installed Ubuntu 10.10 this morning from CD, downloaded all the latest updates. But when I put a CD or DVD in the drive, I can't access any of the data. Disk utility recognises that the drive is there, but it says "No medium detected".
Disk utility recognises it at /dev/sr0 so I added a line to fstab
/dev/sr0 /mnt/dvd udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0 0
but made no difference

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Worked On Live Discs But Not On Install.
Jun 21, 2011I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a Toshiba Satellite laptop that used to have Vista installed on it. I've been trying out various Linux live discs (eventually choosing Ubuntu) for over a year now, and whenever I've been on a live disc, the laptop has been able to connect wirelessly to the internet and browse the web. I have a NETGEAR router and I have always been given the option in the upper right to connect to NETGEAR. Tonight, when I installed Ubuntu, I chose to wipe the hard drive completely (I backed up stuff already), and it asked me if I had an internet connection. I tried to connect to NETGEAR but it wouldn't work. This made me a little suspicious, but I chugged along with the installation anyway. Now that it's fully installed, when I go up to see the list of wireless connections, it doesn't give me any options; everything is greyed out. What do I do now? I just wiped an entire hard drive and can't use the internet.

OpenSUSE Network :: Cloning Discs And Networking?
May 26, 2011I haven't used linux in a long time, and have to install OpenSUSE 11.3 on ten of our servers. What I plan to do is install OpenSUSE and all our required software on one of the servers, and then clone that drive to all the other server drives (the servers are hot swappable). My question is:
What do I need to worry about conflict wise? So far the only conflicts I can see that I will need to address are machine name (hostname) and set unique static IP addresses? How can I change the machine name (ie. server01, server02 ...) and IP address? Is there any other stuff I need to change as well?
We have a 2U file server running windows. All of the servers (1 x Win and 10 x linux) will be connected to a 24 port gigabit switch.
Is there also any special stuff I need to do to allow access to the Windows server (file etc)?
I will also require remote access to the servers, but assume that this will be easy to setup?
As for sleep mode, I assume that's fairly easy to configure through the interface?
SUSE :: Additional; Hard Discs For More Memory?
Mar 5, 2010I'm still running OpenSuse 10.2. The PC has three HDD's, all mounted, but at differing positions, and all formatted Ext3.I can see and examine all 3 discs OK. Some partitions seem to contain common folders.I have run into problems of "insufficient memory" reported, but the second and third discs are very little used, having very many GB free. The memory limit seems to be on the main Desktop, which is where various downloads end up.My questions are:-1. How/where should I mount the additional HDDs so that the PC can seamlessly use this spare disc space as memory?2. What should I do to tidy up the apparent duplicate folders presently seen on the additional HDDs ?3. How can I confidently identify which HDD is in fact the main OS disk ?I am sufficiently PC-literate to understand partitioning, but a bit unskilled still at finding my way through Suse Linux.

Ubuntu :: Create Something Like "recovery Discs" For System?
Dec 13, 2010Just a while ago, I switched on my desktop to copy over some PowerPoints I had made over the weekend, and Ubuntu would not boot (it has a kernel panic error.) Instead of dealing with the problem, I just finished with a new reinstall. I have all my files,to my external hard drive and my diligence to make copies of ALL my files, but I have NONE of my settings OR programs. All I have is access to my external hard driveand so I have to start from scratch. I know I can copy, for example, the .mozilla in my home folderget my plug-ins and bookmarks for Firefox and so on, but I would like to know if it was possible to create a CD or DVD with a "snapshot" of the system with its settings and programs (the files needn't be backed up, I already have devised a system to do that)so I guess you can say that I want everything but my files backed up and burned on an installable CD in case my computer decides to do this again (although it would be great to have my files on the same CD or DVD, but that's unrealistic).
So, are there any programs/utilities out there that are similar to the recovery media creator utilities such as those that come with HP computers? Also, is there something like Acronis True Image that will work with Ubuntu? I am almost falling asleep as I am typing this, so I will not see this until I get up in the morning; I spent the whole entire night trying to get up and running again, but I would appreciate any input as to how to be able to create installable snapshot CDs with settings and programs preinstalled and ready to go
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Dvd Drive Doesn't Play Store Bought But Does Play My Copies Of Them
Mar 10, 2010After many days of trying to tweak Ubuntu 9.10 desktop i386. This subject will focus on my dvd drive. ...Here is what I have done, but I'm not sure what I did or still need to do, or to do different. ...
Basically the problem is, I can't play store bought DVDs, but I can play my copies of them.
When using MDPlayer that I added to Ubuntu, I can play the copies of my store bought DVDs, but not the originals. However, when using Ubuntu 9.10's movie player, it wont do anything and I'll have to do a force quit to close it.
I learned that this may because there is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution, as I'm sure you already knew.
...Yet, Most people have worked around these issues.
I came across the Medibuntu site: [url]
Running the Terminal, I added the bash command that adds Medibuntu's repositiry to Ubuntu. It also adds Medibuntu's GPG key to the keyring.
(The sudo wget - etc etc etc --quiet update)
Then I jumped down to the... "This command should be run in the Terminal, after adding the repository:" ...And did that. (sudo sed -e 's/ etc etc etc /medibuntu.list)

Sep 19, 2010My new job requires I use Windows and as such I put a second HDD in my laptop for the purposes of Window/Work The issue is that Windows will not install on this second disc (Windows cannot create partition or install to disc). I got around this by installing Windows to the first disc, then the second then putting Slackware back on the first but then I suffer the "Bootmgr cannot be found, press ctrl + alt + delete to restart".
I am using Lilo and I have never really had an issue dual booting them on the same disc (Admittedly over a year ago) but it is of the utmost important I have them on separate Discs. Has anyone encountered this and/or know a way around?
