I have problem with copying dvd in k3b. When I choose "copy medium" option, there is only cd medium to insert when k3b creates image. When I insert dvd medium, k3b doesn't want to burn?

I can not get this DVD to mount for love nor money. It works fine in the crappy Windows POC I just pulled it from to replace a DVD that was doing a similar thing. I'm guessing the last update sent something wonky.
Code: #:/dev$ sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom1
mount: /dev/sr0: unknown device
#:/dev$ dmesg | grep dvd
[ 6.485877] sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray fstab .....
The above is stuff that other threads all over the internet seem to ask for with mount related problems but most of it is semi-gibberish to me. I've learned tonight what a mount point is, how to make one, what the columns in fstab is, how to (sort of) use the mount command in the CLI, that I might want to look in dmesg for stuff using grep, that google sometimes has more noise than signal and that I don't want to fix computers for a living.
Errors like mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0 are fairly common too BTW. I'm going spare and spent what should have been a chilled out night of DVD watching getting stressed and digging about in the guts PCs. Had I known it was a hardware problem I would not have bothered changing drives over. There is a disk in the drive and the errors are the same if that is a CD or a DVD.

I had a problem when trying to boot up from ubuntu's cd.
I went google for a fix but most tell me to check my cd for error or use a usb instead.
But i am absolutely sure my cd drive had no problem as i had alr check by boot from another computer and it work.
So this problem only happen to my laptop.
And i do not have an spare usb drive.
videos videos that is showing on the non videos websites is causing breaking up into pieces. how i fix this? ubuntu 11.04 updates mess the flash player up? works fine on videos website if i click on the video link.
anyway why is the sounds coming in medium on the ubuntu 11.04? i turn it all the way up past the 100% on the output volume. but it reset after ubuntu reboot. some videos i can very hear on what they are saying. no problem using windows 7 on hearing them.
How can I get a burning program like Xfburn to treat the DVDR medium like a 650/700MB CDR to burn audio or other data?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install netbook remix on my out-of-the-box 1005PE with windows 7. I used LinuxLive USB Creator 2.4 to put the netbook remix file onto my usb device. I get to the part where I choose whether I want persistent mode, live mode, installation or a few other options. I chose installation. Here is what I see on my screen starting a little before where I think the error is:
Begin: Running /scripts/casper-premount ...

Done.

Unable to find a medium containing a live file system I've tried the whole process several times. I've tried redownloading the netbook remix file, reusing LinuxLive and trying Unetbootin-windows-433.
I've read plenty of tutorials for this kind of thing, and they all seem to be about putting a full fledged OS on your flash drive. All I'd like to do is put the install medium (slackware dvd) onto my 8GB flash drive to install it to my old desktop's HDD.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to create an Ubuntu remix that uses the alternative installer instead of being a Live medium (or in addition to being a live medium). If it is possible, how would one going about doing this? I've been using remastersys but that only allows for Live CDs.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am planning on doing an upgrade on one of our systems from Fedora Core 7 to the Fedora Core 12 distribution. I have read Bruce Byfield's article "Upgrading to the newest Fedora release", and the approach that I am planning on taking is the upgrading via the DVD medium.
Quote: Please don't even bother trying this... each upgrade between fedora versions has it's risks, I'd give you a 4% chance of success between these two versions. And if you upgrade, you'll not end up with FC12, you'll end up with a horribley messy mish mash of a distribution that just happens to mostly contain FC12 rpms. Do yourself a proper favour and save important data and configs, and reinstall. and then keep it up to date properly. Another quote was as follows:
Quote: Glennzo posted a thread in [URL] about upgrading which surfaced in a recent thread. If it's a production system I'd strongly suggest copying the setup to a test slash staging server to see if cleanly installing and modifying F12 versus upgrading to 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 is more efficient slash less error-prone. I am inclined to try doing the upgrade on a test server to see if it works. Should I even bother with that approach or just proceed with the scratch install?
What do you prefer using for your backup medium and/or method? I'm thinking about the issue because I've simply used a spare hard drive but am considering getting a flash drive for an extra backup. Specifically, if anyone breaks into my home and steals my computer, I will lose both hard drives. I would keep the flash drive somewhere else that the burglar hopefully won't go through, saving the most important data. Losing the data would be far, far more upsetting than losing the hardware. Anyway, do you use hard drives for backup, or do you prefer something else? Flash drives? I wouldn't guess that CDs are very popular for backups, because they hold only 700 MB. DVDs, perhaps?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI maintain a network in a hostel for university students. As we often have a relatively slow connection I tried to find a solution. A friend of mine used traffic shaping / QoS here before I got the job. But we seem to have not made the best rules for the shaping as the connection was way faster without the shaper than with. As he himself installed the system alone I have nearly no knowledge how to put up another, better system.
About the hostel:
- 90 people in this house
- 10 mbit SDSL dedicated line, full flatrate
- very mixed type of internet traffic (P2P, HTTP, EMails, Rapidshare, Torrents, Skype, ...)
I would like to install a linux router with traffic shaping, QoS and maybe even SQUID. Googling for the words brought so much older stuff, but nothing newer.
I've encountered a problem when trying to burn a video file to DVD using Brasero Disc Burner. I put the DVD and then open up Brasero and click on "video protect" then I chose the video file I want to burn, I click the "burn" button and choose the settings I want then when press the "burn" button once more.
I then get this screen...
It then ejects the DVD and I get this...
Brasero Attempts to Eject Medium Before Burning ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedLast week I could burn dvd's and cd's and had no problem. I did the latest kernal upgrade for Ubuntu 10.04 yesterday and today I cannot get K3B or Brasero to recognize any type of medium weather blank or filled. Looked on the forum and there appears a bug in the kernal. Is there a workaround? If so how do I use it.

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:

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.
Alright story is: i needed apache tom cat to work on my project, i don't wish to install it in ubuntu so i can keep my system clean and fast. I installed virtual box OSE. Do i need a disk to run? Cause it says "Fatal no bootable medium found system halted" Edit: alright i inserted my winxp disk and now it is installing, i need to know if any change i make will damage my computer? Since i allocated only 10GB to this virtual disk, now it is formatting it in NTFS...i hope it won't have any conflict with ubuntu's ext4 file system.
View 2 Replies View Relatedheres 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 have even tried to run the Live CD and All I get is (initramfs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system.With out the CD in the drive I get, Try (hd0,0): EXT2.I have use of the second CD I made for a friend and I have a LIVE version running now.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a 4 core Sandy Bridge Win7-64 system running Parallels Desktop 4. I created a new VM with a CDROM connected to the 11.04 ISO. It perks for a little while showing some Ubuntu stuff then I get the console message "(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system".I don't get this. It is obviously booting from the CDROM. I'm guessing it does not like the unformatted disk. Why doesn't it offer to format the disk of start the installation prcess? Is it something else?

View 2 Replies View RelatedBackground info: So I installed 11.04 32 bit and it messed my computer up therefore after trying everything I got rid of it, now I've been trying to install the 10.04 long support version from the official ubuntu website and it doesn't seem to be working. Neither the 32 bit version or the 64 bit. To convert the iso etc. etc. I used "Universal-USB-Installer-1.8.6.0" which is reccommended from the ubuntu website and it didn't work. So I tried "unetbootin-win-549" which a friend recommended to me - didn't work either.
Main problem: The menu loads up when I turn on the computer and whether I click on the install ubuntu, or try ubuntu from usb option - both go to the ubuntu screen where the dot's under "ubuntu" flash for about 2 minutes before taking me to a screen where the following message appears: Code: (initframs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system And after about 5 seconds intervals, messages similar to this appear for about 7 or 8 times:
Code: usb 1-3: device not accepting address 7. error -110 new high speed usb device using ehci_hcd and address 8 Each time they appear the parts which differ is the numbers from the text above i.e. usb 2-3....
I'm new to this and I'm sure I've just gone and done something silly. I used pendrivelinux.com's live usb creator to install ubantu 11.04 on my USB. I tried booting my laptop with this, and i get an error message saying "unable to find a medium containing live file system" and I cant get any further than that. The laptop I am using is a Dell XPS with an i7 processor and 6 gigs of memory.
