Hardware :: Unable To Get Linksys Wusb100 On Ubuntu 9.10 Using Live Cd
Jan 25, 2010
As stated in an earlier post, I attempted to see if my linksys wusb100 adapter would work out of the box using linux 9.10. I currently have ubuntu 8.04 and have not gotten it to work on 8.04 either.

I've tried it using the Ubuntu 9.10 live CD (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions) and while the adapter can see wireless networks, it can't connect to them. It asks me for my WPA2 key, but after trying to connect for about 30 seconds it asks me for it again. I've read other threads about this issue but they were kind of confusing.
I just need to know whether the adapter will work and if so, how to get it to connect. I'm so sick of Windows and I'd love to switch to Linux, but I won't be able to if I can't get my adapter to work.
Edit: I just noticed the sticky about posting wireless tickets. I'm sorry, I don't have time to post it right now, but I will post all of that information when I get back.

I was able to successfully put together the driver with the Linksys WUSB100 v2 using ndiswrapper.
Here is what i get from ndiswrapper -l: rt2870: driver installed device (1737:0078) present (alternate driver: rt2870sta)But, the catch is where it maps to: ra0 instead of wlan0. This has caused me problems in order to get it to connect through network-manager or in the terminal.
ifconfig output for ra0:
ra0:
Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:1e:e5:e8:14:e6

how to install the drivers for my linksys wusb100 ver2 wifi card. What I have found so far is that the usb stick uses a ralink driver (rt2870) I have read that I may need to compile the driver on my system but I am not sure how.

Tried startup with device connected, no success.
Read some threads which generally correspond to version 2 of the device.
It probably uses Ralink chipset(cmiiw). I neither have Rt73 nor prism2_usb installed, confirmed by lsmod.

I used to configure hostname in the rc.inet1.conf, DHCP_HOSTNAME[0] option and the router was able to recognize the client name, but with Slackware 13 it seems that there is a configuration I'm missing.

Running Ubuntu 10.10, and I can't get my WUSB100 v2 Linksys adapter to work. I've tried what's in this thread: [URL] Entered lsmod |grep rt into Terminal and found out it runs on the rt2800 chipset, so I blacklisted everything necessary. It finds and connects to my network but after about 10 minutes it disconnects and won't reconnect.

I cannot install Kubuntu (or Unbuntu) 10.4 on my husband's computer. I have spent 5 hours on this and cannot get anywhere. I am deeply frustrated. The iso I burned to CD is good (works on 2 other computers). His computer will not boot from USB, no matter what I do to the drive order in BIOS. After loading the blue screen with the Kubuntu logo on it (and the blue-white dots), the screen changes to black and shows the following text:
BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built-in shell (ash) (initrafs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system.
He really needs to get rid of WinXP. Kubuntu is what I have on my computer (and love it!). Here is some info about his computer:
OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600
OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation

Im having a serious issue with booting ubuntu 10.04, the issue being it wont boot up at all, after working so well for so long (i suspect some recent dodgy system updates are responsible) so I decided to just reinstall ubuntu from scratch again but wanted to retrieve some important files from my root device. So I am running the live desktop and I can see my previous filesystems under places but cannot mount or open my original root device where the files I want to recover are located, I receive this error msg:"Unable to mount 77 GB Filesystem.

I download and burnt Ubuntu 10.04 and trying to run the Live CD. It shows up black screen after displaying the red progress dots and nothing happens after that. No CD drive activity is noticed. How can I resolve this problem? I have been troubleshooting it for days!

From the following link I have downloaded "Ubuntu 11.04 desktop i386" in rar form but when I unrar it I cannot find the ISO file to create a Live CD as the only one that can be burned with Nero is the rar file stated above.Or else wubi.exe or USB creator .exe.

I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 fom a Live CD. My system is a Dell Optiplex 745 that originally had Windows XP installed. Ubuntu is the only OS. Windows XP was removed.
The sytem appears to be running normaly.
When I shutdown (not restart) and then power cycle the computer, I see the Dell splash screen then I get the message: "Errorauto-sensing secondary master hard disk drive. Strike F! key to continue, F2 to run the setup." F1 repeats the message. F2 enters the BIOS setup but does not lead to a fix.
If I place the Live CD in the tray and boot from that, I get to the Ubunt install directory.
If I click "Check disc for defects", then run the check. (I can even interupt the check without completing by hitting ESC), then the system reboots.
I see the Dell Splashscreen.
I see the Ubuntu Live CD menu
I choose "Boot from first hard disk"
Then Ubuntu loads perfectly. I enter my username's passord.
The system runs fine until the next time I shutdown.
How do I get the system to boot directly without needing the LiveCD?

I am unable to boot 9.10 or 10.04 Live CDs.9.04 can boot.When attempting to boot the LiveCD/USB (I have tried both), if I attempt the basic install/start/check CD, I get a blank screen.If I use the option selection to set nomode(something) command (I will verify later, posting from work) with verbose and quiet disabled, I can get further, but can still not boot.Any ideas as to how to get a boot of of the LiveCD?

I've been dual booting 10.10(with Windows7) for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open up several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem. It failed to boot and got this message code...

I�ve been trying since a week or so just simply install the last version of Ubuntu 10 and the Ubuntu 9, but without success. I could not even start with a live CD. I even created a USB a start from there but same situation. The facts are that, ubuntu Cd or USB loads, it shows menu and let me select install or try ubuntu, then starts processing. and then gets stuck with a blank screen ( dark, actually ) I try to find in the F4 option to start with "safe graphics mode" but this option is not there.

I have a serious problem! I downloaded and burnt Ubuntu 10.04 and then chose it as start up volume in Snow Leopard's start up disk preference dialogue and although Ubuntu runs successfully from the cd (I'm typing from it now) I can no longer boot into OS X at all.
I have tried all of the different short cuts at boot up to no avail, even trying 2 keyboards. It insists on looking for the Ubuntu disk and if it is not in the drive comes up with an error message stating that a system disk cannot be found.
Is there any kind of tool on Ubuntu that will let me change the start up disc/interact with the Mac's efi settings? I previously had refit installed but this disappeared just before I booted the cd, is it worth using the live cd?
I tried booting from a Tiger dvd but it wouldn't let me do so, it just returned me to the ominous "System disk not found" message.
Does anyone have any kind of idea? Perhaps some kind of shell script that will reinstall refit? I'm guessing that any kind of dvd designed for PC will prob boot, any kind of OS X recovery disk compatible with MBR available?

On a Lenovo thinkpad S12 2959 and a kingston DataTraveler 101 OK I have been having a lot of strange issues while trying to install the current 10.10 netbook version of Ubuntu.I followed the instructions right below the download for the iso.Basically download the usb live creator and use it.So I did (with no persistence set) and it seemed to work.I tried booting from it and it worked, except that I have to keep pressing keys, I used the enter key and it worked.If I stop pressing enter no progress is made.Then at the end their is some error about no persistent space being available.
and now it is booted, so I try to install a driver and it hangs.so I try to install the OS, and it hangs.So I try to exit and it finally gets to the next screen in the installation after I tell it to exit, but then hangs when trying to get the the next one and it will not continue.

I recently got new hard drives for more space and copied all my old drives onto this one (everything mirrored, no problems)The thing is, when I first setup my Ubuntu, I only allotted like 20GB because of space.Now that I have new hard drives, I wanted to give it more space, roughly double it to 50gb.The problem is, I am unable to resize it.I have booted into the Ubuntu Live CD, and started Gparted. I see all my stuff there, including the unallocated space next to my ubuntu partition (I left it so i could fill it when I expanded the partition)
The problem is, I am unable to make it larger. I right click, click on resize/move, but when I do, it just shows that I'm at my maximum size for that partition, I can only shrink it.so my question is, how in the world can I extend that partition into the unallocated space?I've tried formatting the unallocated space to ext3 to try and merge it, no success.I tried moving my ubuntu partition all the way to the right (end of the disk) so maybe I could extend it to the left, nothing

I've installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a desktop and am trying to install ndiswrapper. I don't have a wired connection to the router, but I have managed to use ndiswrapper successfully on other Linux live distributions which already had them installed (eg, Linux Mint 9). By inserting the Ubuntu 11.04 Live Cd and adding the cdrom in Synaptic's "Settings > Repositories" menu, I can find it in the list of packages, but when I try to install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 and ndiswrapper-common I get a few error messages. First, a notice pops up saying: "Some of the packages could not be retrieved from the server(s). Do you want to continue, ignoring these packages?". I guessed this is due to lack of an internet connection, so I selected "yes" and got an error box that reads:
"E: Internal Error, No file name for ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 W: Failed to fetch cdrom:[Ubuntu 11.04_Natty Narwhal_-Release i386 (20110427.1)]/pool/main/n/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9_1.56+r2729-1_i386.deb
Unable to stat the mount point /media/Ubuntu4011.0440i386/ - stat (2: No such file or directory)"
This system has two hard drives and a cdrom drive. I've error checked the Live cd, and it came up clean. Please, can someone give me a hand getting Ubuntu to mount the cd? PS: I've downloaded the ndiswrapper files from sourceforge onto a thumbstick (version 1.56). Is there a way I can install them from the stick?

I've got an Hitachi Deskstar 164GB IDE drive which I've somehow managed to upset while attempting to swap distros. I'm guessing its lost the MBR as I can't get a PC to see it except in the BIOS. The BIOS tells me that the primary master has 164GB, Cylinders 65535, Head 16, Precomp 0, Landing zone 65534 and Sector 255. (my understanding of that info is very limited). The PC won't boot direct from the hdd and a live Knoppix disc can't see it. Trying fdisk -l produces no list. (Naturally, I can't install another distro on it either).

busybox v1.13.3 (ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
I have verified the disk i created is valid and used it to install on my laptop.
However, now i am trying to install on a brand new system:
GIGABYTE GA-770TA-UD3 AM3 AMD 770 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb 3.0GHz 4 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Processor
Western Digital WD15EARS Hardrive
After several failed attempts to install Ubuntu I installed windows XP with no problem.
I have seen several posts about re-aligning this model of hard drive for the 4k blocks.

I am having trouble both installing or even just booting the live CD. I have to interrupt the boot to give the nomodeset boot option.
Once I get the Ubuntu splash with the oscillating red and white dots for several moments, I get the Busybox with the error message "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system"
If I do a dmesg I then see a lot of sr0 errors. I have an onboard SCSI controller but no scsi devices. I am not sure if this matters.
