I am trying to install 10.04 32bit onto a new 1.5TB harddrive. I had previously installed 10.04 64bit on an old drive in the same nmachine. I partitioned and formatted the new drive using the old system. I have a couple of windows partitions and restored Win2K images to them, 4 formated Ext3 partions for whever flavour of Linux appeals to me a swap and two huge NTFS Data (home) and work areas. I installed Grub on the new drive, it also has its own partition for boot config files. The old drive has now gone.
Grub2 boots OK and gives me option for all the OS's even the one that are gone, thats OK I can fix that later with grub-update. Win2K boots fine and I see my NTFS partitions.
Now I boot from the Live i386 CD and chosse to install Ubuntu. The only thing that not allowed to default is where to install. Specify partition manually, Choose a spare 20GB Ext3 and the swap is already there too. I let it reformat to Ext3 and mount as /. (In Advanced I let the install boot loader default to ticked on /dev/sda )
The install goes OK until I hit the pop-up "Installation Failed". The installed encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will be run etc etc..
I have tried this at least 10 times no. I downloaded and cut a new CD even though the old one worked fine on another box. Tried unticking the boot loader. Disable the floppy, removed the floppy.
I am relatively new to Ubuntu. Where do I look for the cause of the problem? I'll cut and paste the install log files in a moment.
I have 9.10 installed and working like a charm, due to the problems I had last time, I decided to leave an empty space to try and test upcoming editions, but I can't install it!
I get two error messages and can't get past the point of partition assignment.
Here's the screenshots. I'm trying to install on the free space.
I can't update my system - I am runing Karmic/9.10 When I launch Update Manager, I get: "Please report this bug for the 'update-manager' package and try to include the following error message: 'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, Eroblem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_karmic_main_i18 n_Translation-en%5fGB, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was intending to do a clean install of 10.04.I have downloaded and burned desktop-i386.iso.After booting from CD and selecting install from the menu, I get the splash screen for a few minutes, then black screen, then purple ubuntu screen, then the error message "the installer has encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run etc.....".
I am thinking this may be related to ACPI, because when i 'Try Ubuntu without installing' it loads ok but I get a 'Crash Report' notification on the panel.
If again 'Try Ubuntu without installing' with F6 option "ACPI=Off" it loads up with no problem.
Another thing I noticed is that when I load with ACPI=OFF, my external drives automount, but if i dont turn ACPI off, and get the Crash report notification the external drives do not automount.
Today I upgraded my 10.10 to 11.04. Since the last step of upgrading, when it was restarted, I get stucked in consola where it is checking, and there is written fail at stopping automatic crash report generation. How can I repair it. I tried to do
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo reboot
but it doesn't do it properly.
I downloaded the Fedora live dvd iso file, burned it to a dvd. I was wondering if I forgot to do something or did I do something wrong. When I try to install from the dvd I get this error message, isoLinux: Disk error 80 , AX = 42A7 , drive 9F Boot Failed: press key to retry When I press a key to retry I get the same error. I also tried to install virtual pc and get not boot disk found.

First off when I went to install it, It gave me and error saying Installation failed because of an unrecoverible error. then I booted into the option "Try Ubuntu"and started searching for a solution for the error online. I found a forum that was talking about the unrecoverible error and it said "Boot into Try Ubuntu and click the installation icon at the desktop" I did. Then I gave my information and such and then it started installing. then when it hit 41% at copying files It gave me the error message saying that it failed and the error code was [errno 5] I tryed following other steps online and they were all a no-go.

Replaced CD-ROM drive with spare - failed
Moved Desktop to another envirement - failed
Disabled Floppy drive - failed
Move memory chip to another bank - failed
Mark first 3 options in boot menu - failed
I am only able to get online using the live CD because I was dumb enough to delete windows ):

Trying to install net-snmp on a VM running rhel5. I did a 'rpm -qa |grep snmp' and it returned 'net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-9.el5' as already being installed.
So, I then ran 'rpm -ivh net-snmp-5.3.2.2-9.el5.1.x86_64rpm' and it returned an error: Failed dependencies: net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-9.el5 is needed.
Why isn't it recognizing that net-snmp-libs is already installed on the server?

I'm getting the following error when booting from the 10.04 live CD: Installation Failed. The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again.
I checked the CD for defects, and even tried re-downloading/burning to a new disc, but got the same problem. I tried booting in to the LIVE session then installing from the desktop but I still got the same error. I have had 9.10 running on here fine, and after running a Kubuntu 9.10 disc I had to hand to check it would work, that installed fine (hence the auto-partitions you will see in my info dump below). Here is some information about my system, let me know if I've missed anything. I've also included a copy of the syslog below.

I believe this has something to do with a power outage while upgrading a few days ago. Most of the install completed after rebooting, all except the three 'linux kernel image' files and a few others. Also, as a side issue, Flash plugin and Flex builder are no longer working. This may be unrelated. Does any one have any trouble shooting advice for the issue?
Made a mistake while installing btusp for macbook. I know now that I shouldn't have deleted the installed files, I should have run "apt-get remove", but it's too late.

I have done a update from Lenny to Squeeze with the update manager within Gnome. And there was a error 126 and the update broke off leaving me with a non working system. The system does start into Debian Squeeze to the command line. Users are in place and a login is possible. X does not work and there a lot of broken and defect packages. I want to repair my system. Is a restore without losing the configuration possible?

I'm trying to boot Ubuntu from a LiveCD in a computer I recently bought that currently has Windows XP on it. The Ubuntu menu comes up when I boot but it always snags on an error "failed to restore CRTC configuration -22" or something like that, and just goes on ad infinitum.
I tried running Linux Mint too and had the same problem, which makes me think it's an issue with the computer itself - which is an Averatec, if that helps.
I'm installing and configuring my first server using RackSpace CloudServers running Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10) and I'm now installing iRedMail. The installation runs successfully until I recieve this error:
Code:

E: Broken packages < ERROR > Installation failed, please check the terminal output. I understand this is telling me there is some software that iRedMail (or something iRedMail is dependant upon) that needs installed. Is this correct? And if so, what is i needing installed and how do I do that (aptitude install example-package?)?

Here's the situation: I have the newest release of Ubuntu running in dual mode with a constantly failing Windows XP. I installed with GRUB and had no issues, but wanted to have access to the Windows files from Ubuntu (it did a logical partition and I couldn't locate any of the Windows files), allocate more space to Ubuntu and make the dual mode more efficient. Last night, I read up on how to do these things, went to GParted to briefly look at how the partitioning process would work. I believed that I took no action, shut down, and now the computer won't boot. It brings up the HP load screen with the Boot Device Menu and ROM Based Setup but immediately goes to a black screen with a flashing white bar. I tried restoring my defaults in the BIOS and I tested the RAM and HDD, each failing to resolve my issue. I'm assuming that whatever I've done is keeping the computer from knowing where to boot from.

Unfortunately there was an installation error and now the computer will not boot up in windows anymore (I get grub error 17). I had Ubuntu 7.04 before, but when installing 10.04, I deleted the 7.04 partitions. Is there a way to recover the ability to boot into windows?

This is an error I got from VLC Media Player:

It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder:

If you don't know how to fix this, ask for support from your distribution. This is not an error inside VLC media player. Do not contact the VideoLAN project about this issue.
It said not to contact VideoLAN, but instead the Distro so...here I am. Was there a file I should download in order to fix this? If there is one, where do I place it or run it to stop this error?
