Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 RC Partitioner Doesn't Show Exisiting Partitions

Oct 6, 2010

I went to install the 10.10 RC yesterday but to my surprise when I got to the partitioning stage it showed up my drive as being blank, with no existing partitions.

Has anybody else had this issue? I'm not sure what to do as I had the same issue on the beta, I just assumed it would be fixed.

I have a 500GB Sata HDD and i'm running an AMD64 processor so the RC was the amd_64 version.

Ubuntu Installation :: Kubuntu 10.04 Beta1 Live CD Installer Does Not Show Partitions?

Apr 4, 2010

I am booting from a USB stick live CD image of Kubuntu 10.04 Beta. When I run the installer, and choose the "manual select partitons" option, it lists only my full hardisk, whereas I have atleast 5 partitions on it, and none are shown. Could anybody help me with this? I want to install on one of the partitions and leave the rest intact. I am dual-booting BTW.

Ubuntu Installation :: Device Does Not Show Up In The Wireless Settings Box?

Jul 15, 2011

After cleaning up my son's Vista desktop and backing it up, I installed 11.04 alongside Vista.

Issue #1:

Using the Ubuntu Requirements Guide, which says a minimum of 5GB is needed, I went ahead and allocated 15GB, to be safe and allow for future growth. But when it boots, I get this message:

This Computer has only 244.6 MB of disk space remaining

Ubuntu confirms that the installation took up 13+GB of space. Why is this, and how do I correct it? I would be fine with deleting the partition and starting over, but do not want to damage his Vista installation.

I don't understand why these space requirements aren't explained better or even consistent between different official Ubuntu sources. Here's one for 11.04 that specifies that "You must have at least 44MB of memory and 500MB of hard disk space to perform a normal installation." Now, 'normal installation' implies to me that everything is installed, so I don't get it.

Issue #2:

When I turn on the computer or reboot, I get this floating box:

Monitor Is Working
92.5khz 58hz
Out Of Scan Range
Change PC Setting

This does not disappear until it has booted Ubuntu, so I do not get any menu to choose between Ubuntu and Vista. Why is this and what's the fix?

Issue #3:

When I plug in his USB Wireless device, the device does not light up, there is no popup box in Ubuntu, and the device does not show up in the Wireless Settings box. How do I get Ubuntu to see this device (or any newly plugged in device) so that it can look for the appropriate driver?

Software :: Cann't Find The Device Created Through Device Mapper In /proc/partitions?

Recently, I created a device sc0 through device mapper. The divice could be found in /dev/mapper/sc0. My problem is that the device doesn't exist in /dev/partitions which will block my following test.BTW, I found dm-0 in /dev/partitions. Is it the same as /dev/mapper/sc0? But the device /dev/dm-0 doesn't exist!

Ubuntu :: Unmounted Partitions Don't Show

May 4, 2010

I just upgraded from Karmic to Lucid and have the following problems:

(1) My unmounted partitions used to be visible in "Places" on the left of Nautilus, so I could mount them when needed, but now they are not there. Also,they do not show in "Computer" view
(2) When I open Disk Utility from System/Administration, there is nothing at all showing - it takes quite a while to start up, but when finally the window opens, no devices or partitions are shown.

Software :: Automount Show Mounted Partitions?

Jan 20, 2011

I am using direct mounts because I like being able to cd to the directory and use tab completion..versus indirect mounts where you can not do that since the directories are virtual.But, why does the /proc/mounts show these directories mounted(I have not cd to them)? Are they technically mounted? The reason why I use automount is because if I ever have power failures at least not all filesystems that are not being used will be unmounted and not corrupted.

Code:
localhost init.d # cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0

General :: List Disk Partitions And Show Which Ones Are Mounted?

Apr 29, 2009

I know I do fdisk -l /dev/sda and see all the partitions on that disk, and I know I can do mount and see all the mounted partitions. Is there a way to do both at the same time? Ideally what I'd like to see is the output of fdisk -l but with an additional column that shows if a partition is mounted or not.

General :: Unmounted (and Unwanted) Partitions Show Up In Nautilus

Jul 15, 2011

I have been setting up my laptop as a dual boot with Win7 (yuckkk!) and Ubunutu 11.04. My HP Pavilion dm4 came with 4 primary partitions used by Windows! (Again, yuckkk!) I got rid of Windows_recover partition (I don't remember the exact name) converted that primary partition to an extended partition and then installed Ubuntu in virtual partitions. All that works.What I don't like is that the partition HP_TOOLS shows up in Nautilus, and if you click on it, it self-mounts and makes that partition accessible.

Ubuntu Installation :: Installer Won't Recognize Partitions - Error Message Saying Partitions Over Sized

Mar 22, 2011

I 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),

Ubuntu Installation :: CD Doesn't Detect Partitions But No Apparent Overlapping Partitions?

Mar 3, 2010

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:

ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt$ sudo fdisk -lu
omitting empty partition (5)
Disk /dev/sda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes

Ubuntu Installation :: Order Of Partitions For Root / Home And Swap With Respect To Windows Partitions?

Feb 9, 2011

I am installing Ubuntu on the same hard drive as Windows 7. The partitions of Windows 7 have already occupied the left part of the hard drive. From left to right, the Windows partitions are one partition for Windows booting, one for Windows OS and software installation, and one for data which is planned to mount on Ubuntu. I was wondering how to arrange the order of partitions of root, home and swap, i.e. which is on the left just besides one Windows partition, which is in the middle and which is on the far right?

Debian Multimedia :: PCManFM - X-gvfs-show Not Working With Multiple Partitions

Aug 20, 2015

Entries from fstab:

Code: Select allUUID=04E2891117C6D1E8 /mnt/Movies auto user,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0

UUID=2983C8A82A5FEF6C /mnt/Down/ auto user,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0

The only one that shows in PCMANFM is the Movies partition. All others listed here are missing.

I checked syslog and it looks like they all mount correctly.

This puzzles me since all of them have the same options set.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: External Webcam - Won't Show Up As A Video Device

Jan 10, 2010

So my Microsoft Lifecam NX-3000 used to work with 9.04, but I can't seem to get anything from it now (Xubuntu 9.10). It still shows up fine when i enter lsusb, but it won't show up as a video device anywhere else. I have faith that this bug is a simple fix for someone who knows what they're doing, but unfortunately I don't. If it's relevant this is on my aging Toshiba Satellite.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Bluetooth Sound Device Not Show Up In Mixer

Feb 23, 2010

I have got my headset connecting to the system using the BlueMan interface. When I first did this it gave me a error about not being able to put the sound on-top of 'pulseaudio'. Well this well about the last straw between me and Mr. 'PulseAudio', so away he went. I removed the demon via this instruction. [ubuntu] Safely Remove Pulseaudio?

I then tried connecting to my bluetooth headset again, no errors. But the bluetooth sound device does not show up in any mixer, or application. What else do I need to do to get this working again. I know my hardware is fine, it used to work in the previous version of Ubuntu and it all works on my wifes Windoze XP computer.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Setting Sansa MTP Player To Show As Media Device?

Jun 1, 2011

I'm using OpenSUSE-11.4+KDE and have not been able to access my Sansa Express drive. I can pull it up part way, but it acts as read only. I'm not sure what settings I may need to make in the Partitioner to fix this.If I boot into a LiveCD of LinuxMint10-KDE and plug it in it is instantly identified as a "Media Device," and I have access into the MTP section of it I believe.

I prefer using Banshee, but will use Dolphin to manual drop files it I can get the Sansa drive to operate as with Read+Write. I've seen this device listed here at "plug and play" [URL]../HCL:Gadgets#Media_Players

Software :: GParted Device Naming Order - Reclaim Unused Space From One Of The Partitions In The Middle /dev/sda7

Dec 22, 2010

I have logical partitions on my drive numbered /dev/sda5 through /dev/sda14.I want to reclaim unused space from one of the partitions in the middle /dev/sda7. First I intend to resize /dev/sda7 by leaving the beginning of the partition as is and shrinking the end to create some unallocated space between /dev/sda7 and /dev/sda8. Then I would like to create a new logical partition in this unallocated space. My question is what will be the device name of the newly created logical partition? Will it be /dev/sda15 (I hope)? Or will it be /dev/sda8 and all partitions after this be renamed?

The GParted manual states that if a partition is deleted, all of the following partitions will be renamed, but it doesn't say anything specifically about renaming partitions after adding a new partition in the middle of a partition table.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 - Prepare Disk Space With Empty Array

Sep 30, 2010

I have a PC with Windows 2000 Pro installed in an NTFS partition of 60GB. My rest hard disk (500GB) is empty, no partition at all. When I run Ubuntu 10.04 installation after step number 3 I get a weird step number 4 showing prepare partitions with an empty array and no available command button at the bottom! So I can not create any partition... Also in step 4 I never see the "prepare disk space" menu. If I use a 9.04 Ubuntu CD and I try to install I get every menu fine as expected. I even tried the 10.04 CD to another PC with Windows XP PRO and the installer worked as expected for partitions.
