Ubuntu Installation :: How To Burn Present OS On DVD / CD
Aug 5, 2010
Recently, I've started to use Ubuntu operating system.. the last version 10.04 LTS. I downloaded the .ISO image file from the site and burnt a CD to use it back, but I was wondering now after I installed my Ubuntu and made all updates and upgrades to the applications and added all packages that might be useful for me, can or can't I burn the present system with all the add-ons that I've added on DVD/CD?? Instead of using the old CD that I made which is free of all packages and necessary programs.. or at least, is not there downloadable files from the internet that allow me to install the packages and the programs offline!! Considering that I might not be able to have an internet connection..

When I try to install Ubuntu 11.04 ( Not using WUBI ).. My already present OS Windows 7 is not being detected. More over I get two options,
1)Erase the disk and install
2)Specify the partitions
When I try to specify the partitions, my hard disk is shown.. but my 4 partitions are not visible.

This is my first time on a forum and the first time I tried to set up a web server.I am following a tutorial on how to set up a web server here: [URL]We get to a part were I have to install a firewall. The tutorial suggests shorewall. The command I am told to use is sudo aptitude install shorewall. However is returned is could not find package shorewall. I have searched the net and could not find anything on my issue. I then attempted to search aptitude but no luck. I found shorewall online but how do I download it without a GUI.
This is also my first time having an OS that is only command line. I have done other things from the command line only before. Things such as computer science homework on the computer science servers.For simplicity, how do you install software off the internet on to ubuntu server without creating a CD or using a flash drive

I'm sorry if this is the wrong section and if there is another thread on the matter. I searched but couldn't find threads with my specific problem. I've just installed Ubuntu 10.10 Server 64 bit which I intend to use as a internal file server.
The hdd setup is:
500gb system disk
1tb storage
2tb storage (2*2tb using built-in motherboard hardware RAID1) When the installation was complete and the computer rebooted I got an error message saying "error: no such disk". After re-installation I got the same message and I then tried disconnecting all the storage devices and it booted perfectly. I then tried connecting up the 1tb drive and again it booted as it should. But when I re-connected the RAID:ed disks the error message re-appeared.

I have a Dell Dimension 2350 with an Intel 82845G Graphics controller that is connected to a 15" Craig flat screen television via VGA. It has absolutely no issue running at the television's peak of 1280x720 at 60 Hz with Windows XP. When I first discovered Ubuntu, I immediately tried to install it. After a tedious month of failed attempts, I resolved to doing what I opposed: using Wubi. I did not want to use Wubi because I wanted Ubuntu on a separate partition.
This is where my issue is. After installing Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, I rebooted and started normally. I noticed that audio was present but all I saw was a blank "No Signal" screen on my television. I waited for over an hour, to no avail.computer was responsive. This was obvious when the computer released audio when a button was blindly pressed. I reinstalled after waiting even more, suspecting a failed install. I then used the failsafe graphics upon pressing escape after my third failed install. This worked, but it gave me an unsightly 640x480 resolution. I did my best to fix this, but it came to a dead halt with an error I could not fix: a CRTC error.
I then installed Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala without an an issue. Everything was perfect except for the fact that I did not have the most updated Operating System even though it was free. I decided to to update 10.04 via Update Manager, thinking that all would go well. It did not. My mistake in updating brought me back to the drawing board.My official Ubuntu 10.04 Compact Disc arrived in the mail yesterday. When I hit "Install" I eventually end up at the same "No Signal" screen

I am trying to install 10.10 from a Live CD over my 9.04 (it would not do the upgrade automatically due to apparently lack of disk space.) at the end of the my best guess at the process (alas, Linux is pretty much a plug and pray operation for me.), on rebooting, I get the message: "the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not yet present" I must have messed up at the Allocate Drive SPace / Edit Partition step. I have three existing partitions:
7Gb for OS previously 9.04
35GB for data (which I clearly don't want to mess with)
a a bit for Swap.
So, I have clicked on the 7GB partition /dev/sda1 and have another window, Edit Partition, which is asking me: New partition size (I would just leave it at 7007) Use As (I presume I can leave it as EXT4?) Format the Partition (NO unchecked?)and Mount Point? Now here is where I don't have a clue. The pull down options are:
/, /home, /boot, /tmp, /usr, /var, etc.
not knowing any better, my first time through I just picked "/" and that is what got me to the message "the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not yet present" So what should I be specifying at this point?

I just attempted to install to a USB drive, and somehow in the process, GRUB overwrote my Windows 7 bootloader on the internal disk. My work laptop is now booting into a grub recovery whenever my USB key isn't present (with error: no such device and the uuid) - and hangs on a blinking cursor whenever the key is plugged in.I'm not familiar with what my options are for grub rescue, but ls shows (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (fd0)
My laptop is encrypted, so I don't have much chance of recovery unless I can get back to the windows bootloader.

I've tried to use that thread to help but to no avail, i tried to use this:
[URL]
BUT I CAN'T OPEN A TERMINAL!!! as i am at a point where the screen says: Continue to wait, press S to skip or M for manual recovery. so if i run this command : gksudo gedit /etc/fstab my computer whines about there being no way to show this on the screen, I have tried this:
Use a non-graphical editor, like emacs or vi. Try Ctl+Alt+F3 -- you should get a login prompt. Login to an account with admin privileges (like, the first account you created, for example), and then type 'sudo vi /etc/fstab'; that will open /etc/fstab in the vi editor. Make your changes, save them, exit the editor, reboot... but if you're not used to working with a non-graphics-based editor, you'll have a bit of research to do. It's not hard, though, just tedious.however i have not managed to make it work.

I have a question regarding ubuntu installation. When I burn the ubuntu installation iso file to a CD-R, does it close the CD-R disc at the end(i.e. prevent writing more data to disc) or can I append more data to the disc in another session?

I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server on a test server at work. So I downloaded the .ISO from Ubuntu's website and burned it to a CD using InfraRecorder at 12x. It booted fine, but it failed a disk integrity check.
Tried to check the md5 of the ISO by mounting it vCdControlTool (I'm running Windows XP Pro on my workstation) and opening the md5sum file... and it was huge! Like 128 lines huge... I tried using md5summer (and later md5 check) to check it anyway and it returned a bunch of errors. So i redownloaded the ISO and burned a new disc. Same error.
Now I'm pretty sure I'm not doing the md5 check right, but either way I've downloaded the ISO twice and burned three copies now and all have given me the same error.
Trying to install on an old Dell workstation with P4, 384mb 333MHz ram, and a 20 gig HDD.

I live in Bulwer in the southern drak and am still running 9.10. Its no longer supported and I need to upgrade rather urgently. There is no way I can download the software as I do not even get 3g in the area and the vodacom cell is overloaded at best of times. Is there anyone in Pietermaritzburg / Howick area that has the latest version and is willing to burn me a CD?

I downloaded peppermintos as a replacement for ubuntu on my laptop. Now i can't burn it to a dvd. I'm using GnomeBaker and I get " /dev/sr0: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 0". Is there a way to fix this, or even better, a way to run the iso straight from the hard drive.

have previously burnt many iso Ubntu disks with no problems but evry time I try whether Linux or win I cannot boot from the disk. The burnt disk shows separate files rather than a single iso. I've tried them on 3 different computers with the first boot device set to CD and they all boot normally into Grub (except the netbook which only has XP).

Installed a TP-Link TG-3269 Gigabit card in a machine running OS 11.3 32 bit, when I go into Yast, Network Devices, Network to try configuring the card I get this errormsg: Unable to configure the network card because the kernel device (eth0, wlan0) is not present. This is mostly caused by missing firmware (for wlan devices). See dmesg output for details. Couldn't find any mention of the card in dmesg's output, (though the 8139 onboard card is in there) there is some stuff about pci host bridge but I don't know whether they would be relevant or not
The chip on the card says it's rtl8169sc but lspci lists it as being 00:07.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 8369 (rev 10) Done some googling and there don't seem be any drivers for a Realtek 8639 and it returns no matches from a search on realtek's site, but there is a driver there for rtl8169sc chips, which I downloaded and installed, no errors when installing it Even after a reboot I still get the same error in Yast's Network Settings screen, lspci still lists it as 8369 and the device isn't listed at all if I run ifconfig

I have a clean Linux box on which I want to install Fedora 10.I downloaded the 3.6GB ISO file (Fedora-10-i386-DVD) onto my Windows Vista machine, and then installed ISO Recorder, with which I burned the image to a DVD.I was surprised that the image took only about 10 minutes to burn, maybe less.When I then tried to install Fedora 10 on the Linux box from the DVD, after a minute of checking devices and such, it says "Error loading operating system." It goes no further.I'm thinking that the technique I used to burn ISO into the DVD was insufficient. I followed the instructions I found in the ISO readme for burning with the ISO Recorder V2 Power Toy:Obtain and install the ISO Recorder power toy from the
1. In the file manager Explorer, right click on the first Fedora ISO file.2. In the context menu, select Copy image to CD.3. Follow the steps given by the CD Recording Wizard pop-up.4. Repeat for the remaining ISO files.Actually, the ISO Recorder I downloaded said nothing about being a "power toy"--it was ISO Recorder V3.1 - for Windows Vista/Windows 7. But the wizard gave no choice of specifying which in the ISO were boot code vs. package code. It was basically a one-click burn. I just selected Image File (Fedora-10-i386-DVD.iso) and clicked Next. I expected there would be a step for specifying something about boot code. Or, when you install Fedora from

I have Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope running on my home PC (dual boot with Win XP) and have received notification that this will no longer be supported and I should upgrade to 11.04. I have a slow and costly internet connection at home and don't want to download the upgrade directly onto my computer there.Is it possible to download the upgrade somewhere else and burn to a CD to run in my home computer? I see I can do this for a new install but was wondering if it is possible for an upgrade?

Looking at the versions of Squeeze available on Live CD's from live.Debian.net I noticed a Rescue CD. I decided to download and burn the 386 version in order to get a look at it. I did so and checked the MD5Sum. It indicated a good download. I then used k3b (which I prefer because it has proven to be somewhat more reliable than Brasero) to burn the iso file. I did it at the lowest speed k3b allows (10X for CDs) and asked for verification of the burn. The disk was verified.I then booted the disk and the disk failed to load citing a read error at block 144640, sector 1157120.
I downloaded another version of the same iso file and again checked the MD5Sum, which was good. I again burned with k3b in the same manner as above and got the exactly the same error.I have had no indication of any problem with my TSST CD/DVD drive and I doubt very much that two consecutive Memorex CDs would be bad. What am I missing here?One other question: Is there a way to check the MD5sum on a disk that has been burned? Should it be the same as the MD5Sum shown for the iso file? I see that I can check the MD5Sum for individual files on the burned CD. Given the very large number of files, which one might it make sense to check?

I read in the F11 install guide that you can download a install iso image and then do an internet install. Since my F11 DVD hasn't arrived yet; I downloaded that ISO ; and figured it'd be a quicker install anyway, since that way I'd avoid having to download all the updates after the DVD install.I have a USB CD-RW drive attached to my laptop, currently running F7. Almost all of the instructions I see for burning a CD image are for Win users and Win software. I did download Brasero and it's acting flaky; it seems to want to unmount my CDRW drive, even when I'm logged in as root; so it doesn't give me that option to burn to that disk.
I found K3B, but that's for KDE and I'm using Gnome -- is there any good CD burning software (with a link please?) I can use?
