General :: How To Mount Compressed ISO Image
May 10, 2010I have problem to mount a compressed (ISZ) image under Linux, which was created by e.g. UltraISO? I am aware about user-space fuseiso, but it fails to mount these images, as I have reported in Debian bugtracker (correct me if I ddi something wrong). I ask the community for a help: I need a proved solution to mount these images without decompressing them.I believe that CONFIG_ZISOFS kernel option cannot help, as it refers a special RockRidge extension (per-file compression with mkisofs -z or mkzftree).

In one terminal I do this:

$ gzip my_file
$ mkfifo my_named_pipe

Jul 2, 2010Here's my problem: While choosing to compress certain folders from within Windows 7, I marked the boot manager as 'compressed'. Now, when I try to boot, I'm not able to boot into Windows 7, or any other OS (I get an error: bootmgr is compressed, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to continue, which restarts the system and the same cycle continues.
I have a Windows 7 + open SUSE + Ubuntu 10.04 LTS wubi install boot setup. To complicate things, its a laptop, and the DVD drive is conked. Is there any way I can boot into any of my OS's? If not using a live boot, can I, perhaps make a bootable USB flash drive, boot into it and uncompress the boot manager ?

Oct 31, 2010We are having a lot of trouble with this.
We need a command line version of Linux like ttylinux. Any command line will do with the latest kernel. It should be around 50 megs.
But the problem is, all these small Linux versions are LiveCD or have a compressed file system.
We need a SMALL linux distro, that we can install UNCOMPRESSED (no squashfs etc) on a hard disk.
This is so simple I'm sure I'm missing something..

Ubuntu :: No ISO In Compressed DL Folder?
Mar 12, 2010I am trying to create an Ubuntu install disk from a downloaded ISO. Evrey time I have tried (3 or 4 times now) to DL the iso I get a compressed folder with a zillion files (including WUBI installer). However there is no actual iso in the compressed folder any where. I have tried DL'n it from the direct link as a windows handled DL and I have DL'd it using BitTorrent.
I am trying to DL and burn the iso on a Window$ XP box. Could my problem be that my browser is auto detected and I get the wubi install DL? Is WinRar messing with me? Am I just lame and even though when I launch 'Infra Recorder' and it can't see any ISO's anywhere in the decompressed Ubuntu, install/iso download, there is a magic manner in which you burn the image that I just don't get?
I just want to install Ubuntu on an older box and play with it. Then I am thinking I might like to reformat my laptop and make it dual boot with ubuntu as default load. But I can't even seem to figure out how to burn an install disk ?

View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Bzip2 Compressed File Too Large
Feb 26, 2010I have been having a recurring problem backing up my filesystem with tar, using bzip2 compression. Once the file reached a size of 4Gb, an error message appeared saying that the file was too large (I closed the terminal so do not have the exact message. Is there a way to retrieve it?). I was under the impression that bzip2 can support pretty much any size of file. It's rather strange: I have backed up files of about 4.5Gb before without trouble.
At the same time, I have had this problem before, and it's definitely not a memory problem: I am backing up onto a 100G external hard drive.
That reminds me, in fact, (I hadn't thought of this) that one time I tried to move an archived backup of about 4.5Gb to an external (it may have been the same one) and it said that the file was too large. Could it be that there is a maximum size of file I can transfer to the external in one go? Before I forget, I have ubuntu Karmic and my bzip2 version is 1.0.5 (and tar 1.22, though maybe this is superfluous information?)

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Generate Compressed Files In Zip Format ?
Oct 30, 2010I was trying to figure out how to generate compressed files in zip format and searched on here. The search produced a list of forum entries on the topic, but all of the instructions were on how to do it in terminal, how to download obscure programs and install them from terminal, then run them from terminal, with all these arcane sets of switches and parameters. Eesh.
It comes with Ubuntu, after all. In the case of zipping files, all you have to do is to go to the File Manager, find the file(s), select it or them, right-click on it or them, and select Compress and file type zip. It's so simple.
There have been a number of other tasks where I wind up spending hours figuring out how to implement the advice offered in these forums through Terminal. The folks who offer the advice often are so good at it that they leave out steps obvious to them, but that take a lot of work for somebody not as skilled at it to find out. After crawling through broken glass to get the job done, and normally screwing something up so it's not quite right once I get it going, I figure out how to do it through the GUI and find out it takes a fraction of the effort.
Red Hat / Fedora :: Backup Program - Cannot Be Zipped Or Compressed
Apr 16, 2010What i am trying to acheive with my minimal knowledge is to set up a linux system that will backup windows based computers to a couple of terabyte hard drives installed in this system. The backups cannot be zipped or compressed in anyway as the backups have to be able to be di-sected and only parts of them restored to their respective computers. Backing up over a network would be a great bonus but not necessary. Does anyone know a program that would fulfil my needs whilst still being simple so i can install and configure it?
