I have windows xp on my dell but I lost the drivers disk so I want to install linux Fedora 13 instead and wipe the windows xp. I burned the iso to a dvd and loaded up the live session user and used "Install to harddrive" but when I get to the partitioning window there is no harddrives to install to so I cant overwrite the windows drive (/C:)..
View 1 RepliesOn a fresh Fedora 13 install, I have done:su yum install vncand:su yum install vnc-serveryum installs tigervnc and tigervnc-server with no errors. However, when I go into /etc/sysconfig/ to edit vncservers, vncservers does not exist. Also, there is no vnc service listed in the services, and doing:sudo service vncserver restartreturns the message:vncserver: unrecognized service

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have installed fedora 13 recently and installed IDPS(snort) on it. But now I am not able to start service httpd. When I write service httpd start, it says OK, but I know it is a false message bcoz when I write service httpd stop it gives me Failed.
On writing service httpd status it gives a message:
httpd dead but subsys locked
I have tried "rm -f /var/lock/subsys/httpd" - no solution
yum update hasn't solved my problem as well.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI just installed win 7 and now can't install fedira 13 on the partition that i made for it on the same drive. The problem is that after installation of win 7 i lost the ability to boot form cd. In bios i still have cd set up to boot first and drive second, but win 7 did something that overrides bios set up. I even tried Esc for boot menu, then i select to boot form cd, but it still boots in windows. What can I do to fix this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to put some Virtual Machines on my Fedora13 box. Using KVM it just doesn't want to work quickly.... Using the v.14 LiveCD to try and install an image onto the virtual machine... took over 15 mins to get to a login screen, then I gave up attempting to log in after 5 mins from clicking the login button. I assigned the virtual box to have 1024Mb RAM and access to both CPU.
I then decided to sack it off and try and install VirtualBox... this has been a disaster. I know it's due to the fact that it wont run alongside KVM, and I've disabled KVM (as far as I am aware) - but it's still FAILING on using DKMS (Or whatever it's called - not got the error open at the mo). basically.. am I doing something wrong causing the system to run so ridiculously slowly, and how am I being thick for VirtualBox to fail to install?
I have downloaded the live iso and i was wondering if i could use usb drive (8GB) as a boot instead of burning a disk?

I want just to install it for example in special folder in my home partition (for example /home/usr).
I had previously partitioned my harddrive and installed Linux on one part of it. I had a few problems and didn't like the way Grub stayed when I removed Linux. Here's what I have now: I reformatted and have Windoh's XP on C drive with 70GB. I made a D drive with 70 GB.I want to install Linux on the D drive (I think...unless I shouldn't do that.) How will I access Linux if I do this? Will my computer boot into Windoh's by default as usual? Will I double-click on "My Computer" then choose The D drive with Linux installed on it? I don't want to have to go through removing the Grub thing as I had to do last time I removed Linux.My ideal thing would be to be able to double-click on D drive and run Linux without having re-start problems with my computer.I'm sorry if this makes no sense. I don't really know how to explain it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install software in the software directory which by default belongs to the user:group root:root.
Lets I create a user called user1 belonging to group group1.
And I create a directory called install1 under /opt
So from /opt, I do:
chown -R user1:user1 install1
Now install1 directory belongs to user user1 and group1.
Question is that in the full path /opt/install1, the parent directory belongs to root:root whereas the child directory (install1) belongs to user1:user1. Now when I install software as user1 and give that Path to install as /opt/user1/blah1 , is that ok?
Just wondering because /opt is root:root

View 11 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded Ubuntu remix Netbook edition 10.10. during the installation i wasnt paying attention and I downloaded the 32 bit version... The thing is the Unity interface is not showing up, and perhaps its becuase of this 32 bit thing. Anyway I would like to install the 64 bit version, not . Ive read around that the best way is to uninstall everything from windows (its dual boot) and re install. The problem is I dont have a windows xp start up cd, so that wouldnt work, or would be complicated.
However somewhere I read I could install over it, and I would like your thoughts. First off how would that work?? Ive learned my lesson not to play with the OS... to how to delete Ubuntu, without a Windows xp CD. To make it harder I dont know anything of computers so yay!

View 9 Replies View Relatedso my new job had me install Linux on a laptop at work, the laptop will be handed off to multiple users, 3 total (for now) The HDD is about 320gb, I believe. First, they just said "Install your flavor of linux", so I installed ubuntu 10.4. Then he said "Make sure you split it into 3 partitions, all boot-able...
fml. So I suck at managing partitions, I took up 100% of sda1. HTF do I split that up, without losing all of my data? My guess is I would need to boot in from a bootable DVD, unmound sda1, then..Im googling it now, but id love to go into work and already know what to do, lol
I have an older desktop with 233 Megahertz processor and one main hard drive 6 GB and a second internal hard drive 4 GB, with only 64 megabytes of RAM. I have installed Windows XP Professional on the main drive. It runs but too slow. I want to wipe/delete the partition and format the hard drive(s) and install a light version of Linux. The computer will be used only for internet and email and light word processing.
