General :: Formatting Went Fine And Started Installing Win 7 However There Was A Reading Error From Cd And Canceled?
Apr 22, 2011
I installed win 7 and Linux Mint, however I've now decided to uninstall both and start with a fresh hdd. Anyway formatting went fine and started installing win 7 however there was a reading error from cd and canceled. Now ever time I try and start my pc it comes up with error: unknown filesystem and the grub rescue prompt. Now I don't know what to do as i can't seem to get around this and back to win 7 installer.

I recently installed KDE in my ubuntu 10.10. To access KDE, I want to use
startx /usr/bin/startkdeBut using it disables sound in KDE (Sound is working fine in GNOME). It doesn't sound for anything like login sound, totem, mplayer or any other playerBut when I press Alt+Ctrl+F1 to change to virtual console, the playback resumes from where it was in time and when coming back Alt+Ctrl+F7 and the time in totem (or any other player) doesn't move. While log out also it doesn't play logout sound and doesn't logout, so I have to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 so that logout sound play then it exits.When starting KDE by kdm or gdm, the sound works normally. But I don't want to login again using kdm or gdm and not to use root user to start kdm or gdm.I don't know what is the difference between when KDE is started by startx or by kdm/gdm where the same user login in kdm/gdm as that for startx

I have recently stumbled across some aged lecture notes that were posted to the Internet in the 1990s. And I now have the leisure to read them (and possibly derive some benefit from the reading).
The covering "ReadMe" states that the notes were originally written in WordStar and posted to the Internet as WordPerfect documents. The text is perfectly readable. But the supplied references have formating codes that mean nothing to my readers. An example is:
Plato explicitly says that the Good is "above being"
(i+5df8h-epe-i+5d'keina f8t^-yv oum0-i+9dh chapter s'-iav).
Is there any current reader that understands these code?

I am having a laptop with Vista installed on it. I have an Ubuntu live CD (karmic) which is refusing to boot on this machine. I get an error : "Error reading boot CD" and a reboot button. I have tried this cd on other machines and it works fine. I tried live CD of kubuntu also but the same error message appears. What could be the reason?
Machine spec: 2GB RAM, Intel core 2 duo processor.

I've written custom prompts for several boxes but this one has an error I just can't identify and need a second set of eyes to help solve it.
I've set the following as my prompt: PS1="[e[30;42m]u@h[e[0m][e[30;47m] #][e[0m][e[32;1;40m]w>[e[0m] "
(hostname/un obscured & image enlarged slightly to make it easier to read.)
Everything looks fine initially as you can see here:url
1- It sets the username@host in back on green text.
2- It then changes to an off-white an prints the command number for the terminal.
3- Next, changes to a green on black font and prints the working directory.
4- Finally is prints a ">" character and a space.
The problem occurs when I try to "up arrow" to reuse and/or edit a prior command. It prints the prior command fine, but if I arrow over to edit the command sometimes the first character can not be deleted from displaying as you can see in the following composite screen-shot
url
Here I did a simple ps and piped it through grep. After getting the output, I up-arrow to repeat the command. As you can see by the second section the cursor only goes back to the "s" in ps. The "p" can not be deleted. Hitting enter just displays a new line, so the "p" was just a ghost being displayed and not really there.

I don't understand the results of a simple performance test I ran using two basic scripts (running on a high end server):
perfVar.zsh :
#!/bin/zsh -f
MYVAR=`cat $1`
for i in {1..10}
[code]...
Performance test result:
> time ./perfVar.zsh BigTextFile > /dev/null
./perfVar.zsh FE > /dev/null 6.86s user 0.32s system 100% cpu 7.177 total
> time ./perfCat.zsh BigTextFile > /dev/null
./perfCat.zsh FE > /dev/null 0.01s user 0.10s system 91% cpu 0.118 total
I would have thought that accessing a VARIABLE was way faster than reading a FILE on the file system... Why this result ?Is there a way to optimize the perfCat.zsh script by reducing the number of accesses to the file system ?

I have been trying to figure out how to format my hard drive when I'm installing Fedora 11. When I boot from the live disk, all installation were done automatically, so I didn't see how I can do it. I tried googling it, but didn't find anything on how to do it either.

Anyone gotten CentOS 5 to install on this hardware? The installer boots and partitions the drive, but either crashes during formatting of the partitions or during package installation with a kernel panic.

I installed 9.10 onto a flash drive with 1 gig of presistence. I tried to install Lyx but it started installing Tex Live on the flashdrive. So I stopped it and installed Tex Live on my own using the installer from its site onto the hard drive. However, some space on the flashdrive was used by the failed install. Anyway I can get that space back? Additionally, if I want to swap to a larger flashdrive in the future? Could I just install the same way onto a larger flashdrive, set a larger presistence, and copy over all files from my original flashdrive? Sorry if I'm butching terms, I'm pretty new at this.
edit: Erm...I think when I deleted the things in the tmp folder because had a lot of archive files in there...I might have deleted something important. Since it is also now asking me for an administrator password that I didn't set. Trash doesn't have anything in there any more.

I have mounted an NFS share with ISO images on my kvm Server. If i connect such a iso to a VM (using virt-manager) for installing a operating system i get the following error on startup: Error starting domain: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 qemu: could not open disk image /mnt/iso/public/Linux/Distributions/Debian/debian-504-amd64-netinst.iso: Permission denied
The problem is definitly that kvm (or qemu or libvirt-bin, i don't know) tries to set permissions (rwx owner for libvirt-qemu, --- for kvm group, --- for other) on the file, although it has read permissions. Is it possible to change this behavior?

I was in the middle of upgrading to 11.4 (in the update packages step) and I had to shutdown to move my computer. I cancelled the upgrade process and it completed reverting back to it's previous state and then shutdown.I just tried booting it back up to complete the update but now it won't boot. It is unable to mount my file system. I am currently running from a 10.10 live CD and I still cannot access my file system. Is there any way for me to either get back to 10.10 and keep all my files or upgrade to 11.4 and keep all my files or should I just reformat the partition and install a clean version of 11.4 from a CD? I'm still relatively new to Linux so if there's any information that I should provide to help find a solution, provide just let me know.

I started in Failsave graphics each fresh boot. New Nvidia card arrived today and installed but I cannot loaded the drivers. System/Admin/Additional Drivers tells me I have the Recommended Driver installed but when I go System/Admin/Nvidia Server Settings I'm informed You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. I open terminal as root and type nvidia-xconfig and I get:

I accidentally cancelled the upgrade (ctrl-c) to maverick before it finished on one of my servers. It was during one of the questions about installing an updated config file. If I run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade", it complains that it can't lock the directory /var/lib/dpkg. What can I do to recover this and continue with the upgrade?
EDIT: forgot to say this system is running ubuntu-server with no GUI

i have a dell server. its a couple of years old and has a perc 4 raid controller in it. When i do an install it shows the drives configured in the raid 5 configuration. i select the disk and do an auto partition. It goes for about 10min then errors with "error formatting drive volgoup00 the error is serious occurred press enter to reboot" or something like that can remember all the words. It doesn't give any info about the error.
i get the same error on centOs 5.5 and Ubuntu server 10.10
There is a firmware update for the raid controller that i could apply but dell's site was not letting me download it yesterday. Other than that I am not sure what to do. I could try an older version of CentOS 5.4 but i figure someone might tell me how to fix this so i can run the newest version.
