I have noticed that Ubuntu checks the / (which includes my home folder) for errors after a certain number of boots.
But the problem is it never checks another partition (Reiserfs) which I had created during installing Ubuntu.
I keep all my data there.
Now how do I configure Ubuntu so that it checks the partition I just mentioned ?
Sometimes at startup I get this message "Checking disk 1 of 1". Does that mean it's checking all partitions on the hd? After a bad shutdown there is no prompt for fsck to run and the system just boots up. In fstab I have both options set to "1" for the partition Ubuntu is on, all others set to "0". Any ideas on both?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI used Ubuntu before, without problems but since the 10.04 version it won't recognize my partitions. I formated my laptop and partitioned it, installed Windows 7 64bit, which I need for my work, and wanted now to install Ubuntu 10.04/10. I then used GParted to check my Harddisk and it is having troubles to recognize my partitions, too while Windows finds them. GParted is giving me an error message saying my partitions are oversized. I am still in the beginning of my Linux experiences and so I don't know what to do. I have two 250GB harddisks (how Windows recognizes them),

I downloaded Go-OpenOffice from SlackBuilds.org, but I can't build it. make terminates with configure error: checking for C compiler default output file name. configure: error: in `/tmp/SBo/ooo-build-3.1.1.5': configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.
(I can't find config.log anywhere) I use a quite 'light' installation (no xap, ap), and I suspect that I have some unmet dependencies, but the error message provides no information about what software is needed (I've installed all dependencies listed on SlackBuilds.org).

I have created a shell script to customise mv command, now i have achieved to accomplish all the functionality of mv by using alias. But i found difficulty in accomplish the funcionality with options [Like mv -i or mv -f etc.]. I thought about logic which check the first argument whether its starting with a minus [-] or not. if its starting with argument it will set a flag and execute accordingly. But whenever this condition is checked it shell script will throw error of destination operand missing. But the same will work with out option.
Note: I have used an minus[-] expression for decreasing a counter on the script above. The below mentioned is the portion of script. Sry for troubling Im not gud @scripting.

I have an old PC running 900Mhz Tbird CPU and 768Mb RAM. I also upgraded the HDD to a 60Gb. I've tried to install Gentoo, CentOS, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint and all and everyone of them stop at the line "checking hlt instructions" during the installtion. I've looked over the web and there are quite a few cases with the same problem, nonetheless the solution is not clear to me, still. I've managed to install CentOS, though, with the help of web forums, bypassing the error by typing from the Kernel "linux no-hlt" and pressing enter. Now when I rebooted the machine it keeps doing even though the install completed succesfully. I'm interested in loading CentOS to build a server since I used to run Ubuntu 8.04 on that box without any problems.

I read many threads regarding `gparted` not showing up hard disk partitions. Also read the advice not to change partition table according to solution to given to others. So posting my partition table here...

I guess entire disk is taken as extended partition and primary partition(/dev/sda4) lying within this. So this is may be similar to thread [URL]. Correct me if I am wrong and also advice me on how to proceed further.

I was given a CD for work purposes and when I put the disc into the drive I get 2 disc icons on my desktop. One has data (a pdf file) and the other has serveral audio tracks. I tried to use dd to image the disc but it gives an input/output error immediately without copying anything. If I try to use brasero or k3b to copy the disc it only copies the audio portion. The data portion does not show up in the drop down to copy - only the audio. If I right-click the data (or audio) desktop icon and select 'copy' from the shortcut menu then it creates an image of the audio portion.
for dd i tried:
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/username/test.iso
This give an immediate error with no data written to the iso file.
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/username/test.iso bs=2M conv=notrunc,noerror
This copies a small amount of data to an iso file but it wasn't usable.

I was trying to install Ubuntu as a dual-boot on my Windows Vista laptop. The hard drive is 250 gb: Vista boot 157 gb partition; a partially-occupied 33 gb partition which was designated as swap-space; a newly partitioned and ext3 formatted 30gb for the Ubuntu installation. I believe there is also a hidden partition ~20 gb with "hidden" system info. During installation I received an error message concerning the swap space partition, which forced me out of the installation and back to the ubuntu partition manager screen. Now in Vista my 33 and 30 gb partitions are missing. Is there anyway I can get back to pre-Ubuntu state?

Xubuntu 9.04 installation CD not detecting any of the current partitions. This all started when I reinstalled windows XP a few days ago.After, the computer wouldn't boot into GRUB and would boot directly into windows.Other threads have dealt with a similar issue, that of overlapping partitions causing libparted/parted/gparted to detect the whole drive as unallocated space. The problem in these threads seemed to be a corrupted partition table, in which the partitions overlapped with each other. So of course I checked the output of fdisk -l for overlapping partitions, but I don't see any obvious overlapping partitions. I've noticed that the partition that used to be linux swap isn't showing up in the partition table at all. I might just be missing something simple here and would like another set of eyes to help me figure this one out. Does the problem have anything to do with the partition table being out of order (ie. not in order of what regions they cover on the drive)? From the liveCD I've run
Code:
sudo fdisk -lu
sudo sfdisk -d
sudo parted /dev/sda print
and have received the following output:
Code:
