i have 2 hard drives with originally Win XP on one of them, and i thought it would be cool to have one with WinXP and the other one with Linux.so i choose Ubuntu. i just wished someone would have told me how Pro you really have to be for Linux.and that its totally not what i was looking for,...and apparently im a total Noob.so i Installed it, wasnt that hard, and first i thought what a cool OS ill keep it!than i tried Booting my Old OS *WinXP* from the other Harddisk (worked perfectly until than)/so Basically Ubuntu ****** up my WinXP because now i get the NTLDR Missing Error trying to start WinXP, that never happend before with that Pc.
i tought great now i have to reinstall Xp, but it came much worse,...i boot from the XP cd, and cant use the "normal" install funktion, because some errors say that i cant use the Partitions etc (no idea) up to cd reading errors,...so i wanted to try the Windows Repair console and easy Format C and D to get rid of Linux and reinstall a clean WinXP/
which OFC needs a stupid Admin Password, which i honestly NEVER have choosen.(i have no idea what the admin PW could be).than i made the big mistake of all, and tried to learn to Format anything with Linux,...20 stupid "tutorials" Later i still couldnt make it because im not that good with English and Linux,.
and all that programming speech, fdisk etc really is to complicated for me,...(i spent 1 hour finding where to enter the any command, because all tutorials ofc know that you ofc need the Terminal application,....half of the "how Tos: and Tutorials simply dont work because he doesnt know the Commands im entering probably Wrong, and and the other half is way to complicated for me to understand and requires knowledge i simply dont haveholy mother of god, i can tell you i never missed Windows so much,... right click, format done,... (again im not that good with Pcs)trying to get a windows admin pw is even more complicated than simply formating,... i guess.so now after aproxx 5 hours of trying to Format a hard drive under Linux i give up and came to you.
what i would need is simply a totally Idiotproove Manual to format Everything!
i have NO Idea how Linux works,.. so please if you could tell me step by step, just what to type or what buttons to press in this stupid Terminal,....i want the whole Pc clean again, so i never have to Suffer under Linux Pro"ness" again seriously its been a long time since i was so angry with my computer, and youre my last hopeand yes im very aware that im posting a kinda antiLinux thread in a Linux forum,
I dont know what to do, since noone responded me, I think I need to do this. My problems are in my previous post, all I am asking for a little advice on how can I remove all that is in my PC throught the command line(I can't get further)
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a ubuntu sever with a raid1 data drive formated in native linux ext3. I have searched for answers to my question but most likely I'm not asking it correctly. I want to use the data drive to store backups of files from various ubuntu and windows machines. Do I need to reformat the drive as ntfs to enable windows use or can it remain as ext3? For that matter can I reformat as ext4 as a soultion? Again, I wish to use the data drive as a backup storage.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 3 partitions:
1) root (20 GB)
2) home (40 GB)
3) data (250 GB)
I can't install anything anymore because my root partition seems to be full somehow. I do not understand how this is possible. I have only installed kde4 (not gnome) and did not install that many software. I always have been fine with this setup until now.What can I do beside formating and reinstalling opensuse? Is there a way to check if something else is wrong? I really do not believe I have that much data installed.
Is there a difference between using GPT partition table when formating hard drives and MS-DOS partition table? What are the advantages/disadvantages of using either?

View 2 Replies View RelatedOur corporate wireless network uses continuously changing passwords with RSA tokens.So every time we need to connect to the wireless we need to enter a new password off the RSA token. For extra fun using the wrong password a couple of times in a row causes the users account to be locked.Network manager automatically stores and reuses the password, with the net result that it is constant getting my account locked.Is there some way to prevent it from storing my password for that network?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just recently rebuilt my RHEL 5.3 system using MONDO onto differnt hardware. The tool worked GREAT on my 32 bit system. The only problem I am having now is that since this system was built as a clone of another system on different hardware, it copied over the network definitions as well. Not good!!! So although my system is up, I can't get it on the network because it still wants to use the original NIC's that were on the other system. How can I blow away all network hardware definitions and tell the system to go out and re-discover so that I can configure them with the nessasary network information.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI work in a small research lab in my college and we work on Windows. I am planning to switch all the computers into Linux create a network.
This is a small job in the first step. I need to hook up 3 computers together such that they all communicate with a central computer (server). The users will have to log on to their accounts and run their work from the central server, be able to run applications (vlsi, CAD) stuff from the server. I (as root) should be able to take backups (using crontab I guess) and be able to create new users, administer.
Can anyone direct me to a manual or a website or a previous post that goes through these steps. I searched the forums and was lost in my effort
I only have used Linux on a standalone PC and have never networked before.
I am struggling to get dd to restore a disk image across a network. I imaged a hard drive using dd to an external drive but no longer have that drive. The image file itself is on another machine and the only drives I have are the single internal drives of each machine so I am trying to run the command over the network
[Code]....
The permissions on /dev/sda appear to be correct - root has rw access. I assume the problem is that the credentials for the remote account "user" are being used for "dd". Is this a syntax problem or do I have to change the permissions on sda to give write access to everyone? I don't know if changing the permissions affects only the running Linux or if anything is written to disk so I'd prefer not to make changes until I'm sure I'll be able to restore the image.

I am trying to configure the BMC on my server so I can remotely power/boot/check on the system via IPMI.The server is on a switch with an IP address to the outside on eth0.It is my understanding that the BMC gets assigned a non-routeable IP (192.168.x.x, etc), but it runs off the same NIC, eth0. Is that correct?How is the switch port configured to have two IPs on the same NIC/cable? Or do I need to have a second NIC configured for the non-routeable IP?

I am using wvdial to connect to a mobile network (I have a usb modem) and it works fine. However, I wanted to automate the connection a bit (currently I am running wvdial every time I want to connect). I was wandering if there is a way to add this network to /etc/network/interfaces (in a truly Debian way) to have it connect on startup and/or whenever I connect my modem.
