I've tried mounting the ISO as read/write so I could move files instead of copy, but did not have any luck. See here and here.
Should I just give up, download the iso, then re-upload the files? 6.4gb represents a long time over dsl.
I've been playing around with arch and ubuntu in virtual box, and after many... many installs i realized it'd be practical to just image the virtual drive and do it that way.
Now of course I could just copy the vdi file, but that's cheating.
Kind of like what is normally done with norton ghost, however I don't have money to be buying it, and so it's left me curious about what utilities similar to ghost there are our there.
How do I adjust the dpkg --get-selections >installed so that it tells me about a linux installation that is not active. Currently I can not load the original installed Ubuntu on the HD and am using the live CD. How do I extract the list of installed applications for the system on the hard disk

I am also open to the idea of using an alternative operating system (like OpenSolaris) if it will provide significant advantages.What Linux-based filesystem favours very large contiguous files (like VMware's disk images)? Alternatively, how have people found ZFS on OpenSolaris for this kind of workload?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOooookay, so basically the idea I have is that I would like to boot Windows XP over an AoE connection. This is no issue, however the problem comes when I want to have a single, read-only image as the base image and want to be able to boot multiple computers off this image.Licensing issues aside (let's assume that this complies with all licensing issues, or we can think of it as just a conceptual "how could we do this"), the basic issues are thus:Each boot of Windows will require a writable AoE device...The original disk image must be read-only to avoid changes in 1 boot affecting all boots(As far as I know) The AoE device must be a disk image, or some block device rather than a mounted file system (if this is not so, aufs could be used)So the long and the short of this, from what I can tell is that we need a read only device that we can write to.
At the end of a session, the changes to the device will be discarded, so these can be thought of as simple temporary sessions. This means that there is little concern with having changes to the original read-only image effecting the modifications to the "duplicate" images.
I would like to avoid duplicating the image for each instance, however if no solution can be reached then this could be a possibility (every boot, we can copy the image, give the fresh image to the new boot and remove when done)Optimally, changes to the filesystem will be written to a different filesystem (much like what aufs does, however as stated earlier, afaik aufs only deals with 2 mounted file systems, whereas we need the end result to be an image or block device)Sorry if I havn't explained this particularly well, however I've been trying to think of solutions, caveats and generally how to define the problem as I was writing. If you think that this idea is ridiculous because software x handles the problem better, I'd be very pleased to hear about it, but the basic requirement of temporary, network bootable windows xp sessions still applies.
I have a lot of RAR files and ISO. Is there a program like Winrar which could open them in Linux? Cause now it only opens zip files . Also I would like to know what the best package manager is (I mean the easiest -used to use the Software Manager in Mint 9 Xfce).At last I would like to know if there is a good program to make disk images to reset the system.

Lately, I have been having problems that previously did not occur. When I try to click on the checkbox to get rid of emails, it doesn't register in most cases, or when it does, I am clicking multiple times so it registers twice, meaning it is unchecked again. Even more frustrating is some issues that are affecting my ability to update my business. I am trying to modify spreadsheets (text not calculations).
Whenever I try to click & drag to select something to change, it keeps jumping around to select only some of what I want, something else or some combination of the 2. When I try to copy and paste several fields from 1 column to another, everything from the several fields in the source column ends up together in the last field in the target column. I am also trying to download some images from a website. There is a single column of links to the images. I have to click on the link to get to the image in order to copy it, then back out to continue looking for more links to do the same.
My computer keeps jumping back 2 steps, then forward 2 steps, and sometimes I lose my place in that list. I could deal with it if it were a small number of links, but this is a list of probably close to 20,000 links. Again, i am operating off of a live DVD so this should not be corruptible, but this has just started happening, and has been an issue the last several sessions.
using the update maneger to update on ubuntu new linux images available 2.6.31-17 generic and after the download is complete both images exist in the grub menu should i remove them ? or just remove them from the boot menu ? and if so how could i do each.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI know that ImageMagick's convert program can be used as follows to convert a collection of images -- say, in PNG format -- to a PDF file:
convert *png output.pdf
The problem with this is that each image is then stretched to fit on one page, whereas I would like to keep the original dimensions of the images and put as many as possible on one page in the PDF file before moving on to another page.
I am just spent half an hour hunting for a thing that should be totally available already:USB install images of Ubuntu, knoppix and all the others.And, the only good way are so far complicated tutorials where you extract the stuff from an CD image. Why??Hasn't everybody notices that CDs/DVDs are vanishing big time? That more and more systems don't have the readers anymore? Instead of following a 10 point instruction list, it would be nice to just be able to download a Ubuntu 8.10 or whatever USB image and be able to beam that DIRECTLY to a USB stick with a dd command.
Or am a missing something here? Does this exist?It should by no means be mariginal, considering how important USB stick in specific and flash memory in general have become.
so the Universal USB Installer is just not working for me, and on this netbook I do not have Ubuntu on it and it does not support CDs. I need a way to extract the .iso to the USB flash drive
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried to Google my way through this one, but I'm a very novice Debian user (about 4 days) and can't find a straight answer that doesn't go over my head. I'm using the stable Squeeze release of Debian with the xfce desktop environment and having trouble opening .rar files (.cbr in particular) I just transferred from my memory stick through any methods I've searched out.
Currently, I'm using Comix to try and read the .cbr(s), and would like to use Squeeze (the archive manager) to extract. Of course, I'll take what I can get if these are a problem. When I open a .cbr with Comix, all pages are [x] icons, but there are no errors. Trying to extract with squeeze gives "command exited with status 256."
I won't be back online for about 8 hours, but I'll be taking my laptop with me to work in the morning to follow up on suggestions.
Fedora 15 with Gnome 3 is turning out to be dream for me. I am loving it, except few of the old things are gone. I don't care about the not so important stuff but I do care about the Extract here menu option, that I used to have before. I did checked I have latest unrar installed but still I don't see in Nautilus 3.0.2 context menu Extract Here option to unrar compressed files. So, I have to use the Archive manager which I want to avoid. Other feature I am missing is status bar in desktop (bottom bar) any idea how to get that back on gnome 3.

I've been trying to download DJL for a while now and I keep getting error messages. I've been looking at instructions on how to do it and I do what they say. I download it and then I extract it. I think I'm getting confused on where I need to extract it to. I'm very new to this and I'm trying to learn. I've been extracting it to my desktop... then I enter into the terminal sh djl.sh and it gives me sh: Can't open djl.sh. I have the newest version of Ubuntu.

For about three months I've been going up and down the internet looking for a solution to this problem... Basically I take this distance learning course. Every lesson is sent to me via email in PDF format and it includes many audio examples which are embedded in the file. The problem is none of the Ubuntu readers seem to recognize it, and the Adobe reader says I need a plug-in which does not exist for my system. I quote: "We're sorry, but the third-party media player required to play the selected media file in your Adobe PDF document isn't available for your system". I've been taking this course for two years and I still have two more to go. I contacted the company that sells this course and they were as puzzled as I am... Is there a way to extract the audio from the PDF? Or alternatively open it with another application? I would hate to have to go back to windows for this one issue...
