General :: Install LibraOffice 3.3 From A Cd From Format?
Apr 4, 2011
I'm just starting out with Fedora 14, and trying to install LibraOffice 3.3 from a cd from Linux format. Extracted the RPM file into my Downloads folder. using 'yum install *.rpm' from su - it all seems to progress OK until getting a 'not signed' error.Tried 'yum --skip-broken install *.rpm' to get around this problem, but still got error messages. So then used 'yum --nogpgcheck --skip-broken install *.rpm' - and all seemed to go OK and got a successful message, but have got nothing in the application menu. Can you tell me how to get a shortcut in order to open the Office programs?

just wondering is there a simple script to convert datetime to UTC format. I have been searching different forums but most answers are for converting UTC to datetime. For example what is a simple command/script to convert todays datetime to UTC format i.e. '2009-10-09 11:47:59'.

I am trying to install Firefox 3.6 in the tr.bz2 format on Kubuntu. How do I get it to install? Is there a way to do it using add/remove programs and the Adept installer or do I need to use the command line. If I need to use the command line what do I need to do to get it installed?

I cannot format and install XP/Centos 5.3. I have a portable equipment with Linux (Centos 5), I am trying to format it everything to put Win xp and Centos 5.3; the detail is that when reinitiating the PC, the CD installer of xp start correctly with "Presses any key to initiate from CD" soon itself with "the install program it is inspecting the configuration of hardware of his equipment" until there all good.
BUT: Then it remains in black the screen and it does not do nothing else so as in some forums they suggest: I waited for almost 1 hour, I proved with several cds xp and these also I proved them in other readers giving ok, reviewed the bios, etc. and nothing, the peculiar thing is that if I place the CD install of Centos this one if it works and it installs in the portable one.

I have a pretty weird problem, which is that I can't format any partitions anymore.
It started when my laptop suddenly froze and I killed it (I just ran FF, IRC client, Kopete, ... and I think the last thing I did was plugging in a USB drive). When I wanted to boot the machine again it gave me a lot of errors that the root and the home partitions are both corrupted.
Repairing the system with the DVD didn't help at all and finally I removed all the partitions to reinstall the whole system.
During the installation it can create the partitions, but it can't format them with ext4.
I tried to format the partitions with a live CD and YaST Partioner and the same problem showed up code...

I was recently forced to do a reinstall of OpenSUSE. As part of that I backed up the folders I needed to keep. The installation however didn't format the 'Home' partition though. At first I thought it was nice, but I've run into trouble with a program I most definately need to get working. So my plan is to re-install yet again.
how to make the install format the root partition I think it is, and the 'home' partition, so I can start fresh.
To further complicate things My laptop (which this is happening on) is dual booting between OpenSUSE and Windows 7. It is VERY important that the windows partitions remain.

Recently I removed Windows XP pro using Kill Disk and a 000 overwrite on the drive. After that I used GParted format the drive and create a new ext 3 partition then I installed Ubuntu 10.10 from a live CD.
This system has only 10.10 installed. There are no other OS's present. Installing of 10.10 went well and all the the files are now on the drive. However, now the system will not reboot from the drive. When attempting to boot I get a an error message which advise that the medium is not bootable. I am then forced to use the live CD to boot from the CD.
I'm not sure if formatting a drive creates a new mbr or not. If not then I would have to create one and I don't know how to do that. I've read a number of forum posts on how to use GRUB to repair the mbr - however I haven't found any that specifically deal with replacing a missing mbr.
I suspect that when I used Kill Disk it trashed the MBR. I could really use some help figuring out the nature of the problem and how to fix it. I'm fairly new to Ubuntu so please be as exact as possible if you reply.

I just added a 2nd SATA drive to my openSuse 11.2 desktop. What do I do now to partition and format? I want to partition some of the new drive for linux, and leave some of it unpartitioned for Windows (I dual boot). I want to leave my existing 1st drive as is. What tool do I use? How do I proceed?

I currently have Ubuntu installed on my laptop.I have it set up the way I like it. However, I want Windows on here too...the thing is, I dont want to have to format if possible, I know that you need to install windows before Ubuntu. I have ubuntu all set up how I Like it and it would be a shame to have to wipe it.Is there any way at all I can install windows along side it without having to do a complete format?

An upgrade %100 pwnd my system: I performed an upgrade to Lucid from Karmic and I lost my keyboard input and sound etc etc etc. I then made a Karmic boot-run/install CD, & a USB startup stick. I then backed up my important information on flashdrives etc. At this point in time I have 2 partitions one with my old user account & info on it, and the other as a new (re)installed Karmic partition. My question is: What is the procedure for:
a) formatting the drive,
b) not keeping the 2 partitions, and
c) re-installing Ubuntu (karmic) back onto it?
I have GParted ( but I can't see how to use it to format ), and I have no clue how to format the Drive from either within the GUI or at the command-line. How do I format & re-install Ubuntu? What is the sequence or steps? I can probably do the re-install intuitively but I'm concerned there may be Ubuntu tricks I don't know about! Also- does this 2 partition thing cause any complications to formatting?? So honestly my question is simply how to format the drive from within the system.

I have two harddrives. I will install on the first one ubuntu and on the other one opensuse or I will even put them together. I dont know yet.
Has somebody experiences with booting two harddrives, how can I choose between them? And when I delete one with gparted, will the free memory be automatically placed to the not deleted harddrive?

I have been dual-booting Vista and openSUSE 11.2 until my SUSE install is fully functional and now and I want rid of Vista and to reclaim the space for Linux.
Code:
fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x28000000
[Code].....
sda2 and sda3 are the Vista partitions. sda2 is a recovery partition and sda3 is the main partition. All data is safely copied from sda3 and now I want to reformat them for SUSE. I not bothered about partition resizing i.e. I am happy to just have the sda2/sda3 space available to SUSE and mount them somewhere.
1) Do I need to do anything about the boot table first or can I just reformat sda2 & sda3?
2) How should I format sda2/sda3? I'm guessing I need to unmount them and then format. Should I use ext4 or something else? Which command/tool should I use?

I have been using a kubuntu 10.10 till last week when it could not complete do-release-upgrade, so I downloaded kubuntu 11.04, specifying that I did not want my /home partition to be formatted, and went ahead with the installation. I used ext4 under 10.10 and selected ext4 again for 11.04, yet when I first rebooted after the completion of the installation, I could not find any of my files in that partition (except a newly created user home folder with the same user name as the old one). But when I looked at du -h, it's 92% full. I know I have set the mount point correctly, so it shouldn't be a fstab problem. What I should do to recover the files?

I have a problem with loading the powersaving kernel module p4-clockmod.ko. When I try inserting the module (via modprobe or insmod) I get FATAL: Error inserting p4_clockmod (/lib/modules/2.6.31.8-mediaserver/extra/p4-clockmod.ko): Invalid module format The module has been compiled together with the kernel. Other modules load with no problem at all. I've tried recompiling the kernel (after re-installing the sources, make xconfig from scratch) - no avail. There's only one kernel source package installed. Searching the forum and google didn't yield a helping answer.

Attempting install of 11.3 on previous 11.2 dual windows boot box. I want to format the Linux parts including /Home and retain the Win / NTFS part. (dual boot) Peculiar behavior of install DVD. Here is fdisk -l that clearly indicates a 500 GB HD and the Win partition, extended partition and the 3 basic Linux partitions and they seem okay in total.
Linux-mocx:/ # fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x252d252c
[Code]...
I aborted the installation. What could possibly cause the 11.2 parts and bootloader to get this wacked up ? Outside of some sound issues the 11.2 install works okay for the most part. No crashing or lockups. Really want to get up to 11.3. though. I obviously have some work to do with 35 GB of missing space on the HD and Grub living someplace on the wrong side of the river. Suggestions and a pointer or two would be most welcome guys. ( I really don't want the pain of installing that �other� OP system or I'd reformat and reinstall nice and clean.) Do I need to repartition, change mount points and reinstall Grub maybe.

I have a 160Gig and a 40 Gig drive.I would like to install the system on the 160 Gig, and use the 40 Gig drive as a storage for backups or whatever.It appears in the installation process that I am required to use a mount point, which would then turn the drive over to the root system, which would not allow it to be totally available to me.I just want to format it to ext3 filing system.Coffeecat, if you are out there and see this, strange things are happening to the 40 Gig drive - it says it is using 2 gig, but it is totally empty of all system files, hidden files, trash, etc. and it is being imaged in the media folder in root. I believe I have messed this install up to the point of no return and think I should go ahead and start over.
