View 1 RepliesI am trying to install KUbuntu and the installer is struck at "copying files." The first time the installation went fine besides grub not booting properly. So I went ahead and tried to reinstall Kubuntu and now the installer hangs at 15-23% at copying files. I've already erased a bunch of partitions and told the installer to install the OS on "the largest contiguous free space" and it still hangs. To be honest I haven't allowed to it hang at 23 percent for more than one hour.The CD is not the issue as I've tried both Kubuntu and Ubuntu installers with the same result.

Trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 Server 64 bit from USB. At the point of detecting disks, the installer only recognizes the USB. The installation was created using Pendriveinstaller ver1.8.0.1 per Ubuntu Server web site instructions. I have the drives configured as 2 separate raid 0 arrays using the bios raid configurator. The drives have been initialized. (Tried before with a single Raid 1 array, but had same issue and since have read Ubuntu support for hardware raid is not great, so was going to bypass hardware raid for now).
I've seen some chatter on here about opening a terminal at this point and removing dmraid but don't see an option for terminal only shell.
I recently brought home an old Compaq server from work. I was told that it works fine. When I brought it home, I tried installing Ubuntu 9.10 server from a cd. While it's trying to install, I get the message "Installation step failed. An installation step failed. You can try to run the following item again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing step is: Load installer components from CD." I turned off the computer and tried it again several times. Each time the same message appears.

Also, added this domain to my backend exchange server. When I send a test message from the new domain, my messages from that domain appear to be stuck in the "queue active". What does it mean when you are stuck in this queue? Does this mean that my backend email server (exchange 2003) isn't allowing messages from this new domain OR that the POSTFIX server still needs configuring.

I reinstalled Ubuntu server, now, as always I have to start off with 8.04 then upgrade to 10.04, and I've never had a problem with this before on this machine or any other for that matter.

For some reasons i cannot delete the whole hdd... if i format the partition, where (i want to install ubuntu) with fat, the pc crashes during the installing process after the tastaturlayout question! if i try some other formats, the installer tells me, that there are no Operating Systems installed and the hdd is unpartitioned!
if i start ubuntu live from the cd, the system finds all partitions, but if i run cfdisk in a terminal, i get a fatal error (cannot open disk space)... My machine is a acer aspire 1694 WLMi (pretty old, but should be no problem), bios is up to date, Windows is XP home edition with SP3.
when i tried to boot the system today, i got something like a dos screen with all kind of running commands, about USB input or something like that. i took screen shots with my N85 celphone, but i can't place them here since it's shown as black screen when i try to open them!
anyway, since it was a fresh install, i thought i should just save myself the trouble and reinstall ubuntu all over again.

Does anyone know of a way to tell the CentOS installer -not- to use LVM in a kickstart? We've been using a system that lets us define which particular drives to use during the installation as part of our deployment system. This does not work now that LVM is the 'default' in CentOS. I've looked over the options and I see how to FORCE particular LVM configurations, but I see no way to just turn it off.

I know that my tuner is working as i can watch tv in xawtv.
The hardware I'm working with:
P4 2.8GHZ

I have added the card as both V4L and MPEG4 (I'm unsure which I'm supposed to use).
I setup the source to have "no grabber", and then set up input, when I do this, for V4L, there is no "Scan for Channels" option, when i set up input for MPEG4, there is that option, but when I click it i get an error, "Failed to open the card", but I can change the input on that page to the V4L input, i hit scan for channels, it scans and adds channels up to channel 22, where I get "No Lock"; it doesn't seem to do anything else from there.
So, how should I be using this card, and how can I know when its working with mythtv?>

I am writing a client chat server program in java. The chat server is already written. I created the interface and I connected to the chat server. The server keeps sending protocol messages to whom ever is connected, also it keeps sending specific protocol every 10 sec to check if user is still online.My problem is when I connect from my interface to the chat server, the program gets stuck, I can not press any other button because after connection my program keeps receiving commands from server(I have a method to keep reading after connection). How can I keep track of messages sent from server and not get stuck i.e press other buttons or type in the interface?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs a struggling nubie (i have only been using Ubuntu on my laptop for a year and loving it!) i tried to install ubuntu onto my other PC (Powermac G5 dual core 2.5ghz sata hdd PPC). I Originaly wanted to install to a seperate harddrive but with the open firmware on the ppc it seemed a little complicated and i went for a normal instalation.I was told that the alternate CD would be the only one that would install to my type of pc correctly. The instalation seemed to go okay, though at the end of the software install it flashed up with an error message saying that i had not finnished this task corrrectly. seeing as the error message was only after all packages had been retrived i carried on regardless.
I then rebooted after instalation and i can only access Ubuntu through the command line (no GUI) i tried sudo apt- getupdate and sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop I then get the message;"Media change: please insert disc labelled 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Release powerpc 20100428' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter"I tried it with the live "desktop" CD and the alternate CD but neither of them seem to work giving me the Error "Unable to fetch some archives..." I searched for a release that corresponded "Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Realease powerpc (20100428" but i couldn't find a release on google apart from a page of server releases with the same release number.
I have three physical drives:
Drive 0: Used for paging file in windows and general temp file storage
Drive 1: Media storage
Drive 2: Windows installation
When booting off the Ubuntu 10.04 disc and running the installer, it gets up to the partition step and doesn't find my Windows installation (for the automatic partitioning and such) and lists Drive 0 as the drive it will install to. I really want it to see my Windows install and create a partition on that same drive. Can anyone help me in getting the installer to see the Windows installation?

I am a complete novice however where Ubuntu is concerned.
