General :: No Hwbrowser For Fedora 12 Live Cd - Can't Be Found
Aug 19, 2010
I created a Fedora 12 live-usb. Want to use it to discover hardware compatibility on PC's that are candidate for Linux. I tried to "yum install hwbrowser" while in a live-usb session and I get a message that hwbrowser can't be found. What gives? Is hwbrowser no longer available? On another machine I ran hwbrowser and found that the answer on the video driver from hwbrowser is different than from the command line.
hwbrowser yields >>>> driver: i915
the answer I received from the command line interface >>>>> grep Chipset /var/log/Xorg.0.log driver: i810.

When trying to install fedora with a 4gb USB stick, I get after partitioning the hard drive the following message: "The installation programme has failed to mount image #1 because it's not on the harddrive. I'm a dutchmen, so I hope this translation is correct.

I have been able to create the ISO, but I cannot boot due to the data dir not found error.
I have tried using "from=", different CD/DVD readers and different media to no avail.

I tried searching but received hundreds of unrelated posts.
When using the Ubuntu 10.04 Live CD I had no problem connecting through my wired network connection. After installation all I can find is the Wireless connection.
I have a Toshiba Satellite A70 laptop. A check of the system shows no eth0 available. What do I need to do to get the wired connection back again?
Also, if the wired worked before installation, why doesn't it work afterwards?

heres what happenned:
1. had working xp install on 320 gb hard disk with only one partition.
2. backed up and used easeus to shrink and create new partition on same hard drive.
3. tried to install from a working live cd but got medium not found error.
4. looked for fix but didnt find it so i used wubi to install it to the partition i created.
5. worked but annoyingly slow so looked for guide to switch from wubi to full install.
6. followed guide and it installed to a new partition i made with gparted and it formatted that one to ext4 but i still had the wubi install which i didnt want. (btw, non-wubi is much > wubi install).
7. went to xp to uninstall wubi, delete wubi partition, and grow full ubuntu install partition with easeus. easeus requires reboot.
8. restart comp to find an error that said no partition found and something else about grub rescue.
9. try live cds but hard drive not detected and tried win7 and xp but they didnt even get into setup
10. make plan: get bro to format my hardd disk using his compyter so i csn try ubuntu onw more time
i got a bunch of different types of errors but im really close to giving up on it entirely.

i'm trying to transition. Mainly because I'm starting to hate windows... Anyways, I have a 4GB PNY attache. Just recently, I downloaded the live usb creator, and downloaded all the components for a live usb running version 12 of Fedora. I noticed that, after completion of the download, the components written to my USB seemed far too few. At the time, my USB contained the following:
a boot folder, with olpc.fth a folder entitled EFI containing another boot folder, with the second folder holding various files. and then a 16KB file entitled GPL.when I tried to boot the live USB, nothing came up and it booted XP just like normal. afterwards, I rebooted it, taking care to check the defaults on my BIOS settings. It says that it enables booting of live USBs, so I have no real reason to question the defaults.

I just downloaded OpenSuse 11.1 64 bit live cd from it's official site.I have live usb creater in my xp box , with the help of which I successfully created live USB for fedora 11 earlier. Now the problem is whenever I try to create live usb using Opensuse live ISO image after extracting all files to usb , it gets failed.The same thing is happening with OpenSolaris 11 live cd iso image. Does this mean that live usb creater I have, was only foe Fedora distros?

I performed the Fedora 15 Upgrade from Fedora 14 which worked fine except when I reboot the system does not find Fedora 15 i.e. I see the Fedora 14 Kernel and not the Fedora 15 Kernel in the reboot sequence.

I want to try out Fedora using a live USB. I have tried using Ubuntu's Startup Disk Creator but it won't except the Fedora ISO. Is there another program for Linux that could make a live USB?

I installed a copy of Fedora 13 onto my HDD yesterday and everything went fine until, for some reason, it stopped working. (Got stuck at the white bar while booting up). Well, I wasn't sure what the problem was so I decided to run the live CD again (which *is* a good CD, unless it somehow managed to destroy itself since yesterday) and I get "Could not mount root filesystem," sleeping forever. Hm.I haven't changed any of the hardware, and all the connections seem to still be good, so, I dunno... Any ideas on what could be the problem? Thanks in advance for any input.:UPDATE:Now my computer simply displays a list of repeating errors, each one like:Quote:
ata1.00: failed commnad: read DMA
(...)
ata1.00: [ABRT]

I'm running fedora 14, installed on one box, and live on about 3 others. I know there are work arounds for some things and not others, so I just want to ask about keeping some of my favorite games; Diablo II, Settlers III, and seriously, Entropia Universe. These games require direct draw, directx, and so on.

I tried to use Grub to boot the Fedora 14 Live CD from its ISO image (SHA256 verified) on the hard drive. I put Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso in the root directory of the FAT32 partition D: (sda5) then extracted isolinux from this ISO, and put it on D: I followed the isolinux.cfg file, and wrote a menu.lst as follows:
title Fedora 14 Live CD
root (hd0,4)
kernel (hd0,4)/isolinux/vmlinuz0 root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop rootfstype=auto ro liveimg quiet rhgb
initrd (hd0,4)/isolinux/initrd0.img
However Grub told me: No root device found. Boot has failed. Sleeping forever. Here's the contents of isolinux.cfg:
[Code]...

I want to dual boot Fedora 11 and Windows Vista, and the last time I tried I deleted my Windows Vista (big no no). So, I've made a partition of about 30GB, and I'm trying to go through the installation (from the live CD), but I don't know quite what to do? If I select Shrink existing disk, it doesn't let me do it for any amount that I put in, by the way.

I've had no problems with Linux Mint Live CD's, Mandriva works fine too, but after burning the latest Fedora 14 Gnome Live CD, boot attempts result in flashing Caps Lock/Num Lock and the optical drive just spinning but not seeking ... off into never-neverland.Computer is HP 2530p with L9600 CPU.Download checks out as good, tried burning a different CD but no change.I have administered SAMBA and stuff like that before, but this is kinda a newbie question

I reinstalled 10.04.(finally) on a single partition mounted as "/". everything went fine until I rebooted, GRUB began loading and then came back with "no modules name found". I found other postings with the same problem,[URL] but this method doesn't work with the Dmraid.

I need to use Live Media to make changes to a hard disk drive. I tried to sudo to no effect.
Seems like it would be troublesome to authorize root access on Live Media or have sudo allow commands such as pvcreate,lvcreate,vgcreate, especially if the hard disk is not encrypted.

I'm usin Ubuntu 9.10 and installed it a couple of months ago. I was trying to figure out how to use Synaptic to fix some dependancy errors I was getting, and set it to remove a certain package. It said it had to remove other packages as well to do this, well that ended up being Gnome and a whole bunch of other stuff. Silly me.So I was alright without having Gnome and went back to writing simple c++ from this book. I wrote a program to output a range of numbers and ran it but had written it wrong, so it would have ran on for hours. So I just killed the power and tried to start the comp again.
This time after the Dell boot screen it would tell me my system battery was low and strike F1 to continue or F2 to enter setup. Hit F1 and Im told that a file wasnt found and then it goes to the Ubuntu loading screen (The logo and some dots underneath) and then a black screen. Nothing else.I figured I needed to reintall and dont have any CDs so tried to make a live CD and this time when I try to boot from USB device get a "Missing Operating System" error.Its set to boot from USB device before harddrive. Need to know what to do to install again/recover old install.
