Ubuntu Installation :: Server 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release Amd64 (20091027.2)'
Feb 14, 2010
This has really thrown me. I have been using Ubuntu for a few years now and have just decided to upgrade my home server with a bigger hard drive. I have opted for a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 x64 server edition and have plugged my new SATA hard drive and existing IDE CDRom drive into my box.
The install disk burns fine and verifys itself. I have also checked that it is ok as part of the install and again it shows as all ok. The install starts fine and I can partition the drive (either mannually or guided) abd the base system starts to install but then at around 50% (roughly) I get a pop up box saying:
"Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu-Server 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release amd64 (20091027.2)' in the drive /cdrom/' and press enter. Pressing enter does nothing. I can't eject the CD any way and obvioulsy have no second disk! I have burnt a fresh downloaded iso but again have the same problem.

For whatever reason, I cannot for the life of me install server amd64 on my server machine. I have a quad-core phenom 1st gen. USB/CD/HD, it doesn't matter what media its from. It randomly freezes on unpacking or configuring, the steps after configuring the network. If I shutdown, I can sometimes get further, or sometimes its shorter. I can't have it connected to the internet when installing or it goes bonkers. I have tried most of the fixes suggested around the forums, to no avail.
Now here is the crazy thing, I installed Ubuntu 64 Desktop with no problems. So for now, I will continued to install desktop and using tasksel to change it to a server.Oh BTW, I just found out installing desktop works, but I have had this server install problem since Gutsy. The 32bit version installs just fine.

Canon MX320, MX330, MX860 printer installation on Kubuntu Lucid 10.04 AMD64 bit. I am sure Ubuntu Lucid is similar. Once I upgraded to Lucid 10.04 AMD64 bit I found that getting a Canon Pixma MX printer installed was not going to be easy. So I thought it help others if I posted my experience here. To pull this off you will need both the Debian package, (.deb), and the source package from either
Canon Europe: [URL]... Or Canon Australia: [URL]... NOTE: The only reason to get the source is to access the ppd files. They are in the Debian package but it is a lot more work to walk newbies through unpacking the .deb. Since there are errors in the source code it makes impossible to compile a driver. Therefore, you will need to install the 32bit Debian package and force the architecture, then add the correct printer driver from the ppd file in the source package. While these instructions worked for me there are a few assumption I make which mat affect your outcome. My MX860 has a wireless network connection.
In other words I have no idea if this will or will not work on a USB attached printer. (If someone would be kind enough to post back if they get that configuration working that would be cool.) The other assumption is that the general reader is relatively new to Lunix and the command line interface. The commands were cut and pasted from my working kconsole, so they should work for anyone.Here we go:........

If I install a server edition and after that I install Gnome and all other ubuntu-desktop applications on that server. Will these
applications be supported through the whole server support time? In other words, what exactly does it mean that the server is supported for longer? Is the number or applications available to the server smaller than to the desktop?Or, similarly, could I build a Server-long supported desktop by hand?

I've played with a couple of different versions on both Intel & AMD processors in the past (never totally successful) & all the versions I've played with in the past had separate downloads for i386 & AMD. I thought I'd try again with 9.10. When I started to download this morning, I only saw a version for x86 32bit & 64bit. What should I use for an AMD Athlon x2? Have Intel & AMD been rolled into x86?

I cant resist till Sunday without OS, so I decided to give it a try with 10.10 RC.I installed it on my USB, since my DVD drive is kinda faulty sometimes.I used the 10.10 RC desktop amd64, installed on the USB through Unetbootin 4.90, started Live and works flawlessly.I checked to be sure there were no defects, there aren't.But when I went to install it, either directly from the boot option or double-clicking the icon in the desktop, it check whether is plugged etc., I click next and just looks like is loading for an infinite times.This happen both if I connect to the Internet or not, if I choose to install updates or not and the mp3 codec or not.Once i left it there for 90 minutes and nothing change it.

I want to install MATLAB 2009 on a ubuntu server 10.04 amd64 which has NOT any gui. The installation was successful however when it comes to activate, it says "Could not open display. Exiting.". Here is what I did:
1- ssh -X user@server
2- verified that I can see "xclock" and "xcalc". Yes I can see...
3- cd /mnt ; ./install
4- I can see the GUI wizard since the X11 forward is working. Installation done successfully.
5- cd /opt/Matlab/bin ; ./activate_matlab.sh
it says: Could not open display. Exiting.

I have recently added a couple of HDDs to my system and wanted to try 11.04 on one, so installed on my smallest empty hard drive. The installation went fine, but upon booting to that drive the system froze at the 'Verifying DMI pool data' screen, and didn't boot. I thought it could have been that drive, so I tried installing on my 500gb drive which had 10.10 running on it. After backing up files etc., I tried a fresh install of 11.04 on this drive, but with the same result, same freeze at the same screen.
During this process I noticed that the Live USB I am using has been quite glitchy (eg. selecting a menu option and it hangs for about a minute before any action), which makes me suspect that it could be the image I'm using. I've downloaded it a couple of times just in case it was a bad image (has happened to me before), but that hasn't fixed it. Both times I used the image in the Internode mirror repository, [URL]...

Does anyone have any experiences to share regarding this? Our server is still running Hardy and, of course, the time is rapidly approaching where I need to upgrade to the latest LTS. Now, I'm sure a complete re-installation would obviously be preferred, but I noticed that there's a release upgrade feature for Ubuntu server. Is this reliable enough to use on our production server without wrecking everything? I really don't want to have to go through the process of configuring software RAID and all our other services again.
Obviously I'll take normal precautions such as making tons of backups and starting the process on a weekend so if the proverbial poo hits the fan I can work over the weekend and have everything up and rolling by monday. This server is not exposed to the outside world as a webserver or anything like that so it can afford to be down over the weekend (although not preferable since we have financial cron jobs and such running in the wee hours of the morning).

I recently upgraded my hardware and installed 32-bit Karmic (well really Mint 8 ) before realizing I would probably have gotten better performance from the amd64 architecture. Is it possible to convert an i386 system to amd64? Is it a good idea? Will there be a lot of problems afterwards? Is it easier to just backup home and etc, install a clean 64-bit system, then restore settings from backup? If I do convert the system, how do I do it? I thought I might be able to just install a different kernel but I can't find an amd64 kernel in the repositories..

First, the official download page is 32k download. I've NEVER had that slow of a speed before. I've downloaded and used Ubuntu since Drake. The only desktop iso for AMD64 is 698k (Official download).
I've downloaded that image for AMD64 10.04 from two download locations and burned the CD. When I boot, I only get the install option in a non-graphical environment. No LiveCD button.

I want to install Ubuntu 10.04.1 AMD64 on a new Athlon II X4 635 with 4 GB RAM. At first, I had a working installation using the alternate installer from a USB stick, using a 500 GB disk with encrypted LVM. Then I wanted to use a 2 TB disk instead, but after installing exactly the way I did before, the system didn't boot. After letting me enter the encryption key, the boot process didn't continue. Switching to text mode revealed that the kernel went into a kernel panic, after some message I interpreted as a problem locating some device (stupidly, I forgot to write it down).
Next thing I tried was an installation using an older 10.4 x86 alternate install CD, without encryption and using only a 20 GB LVM. Installation took a lot longer than I would have expected (don't know how long exactly, but at least 1.5 hours), but at least it went through and worked afterwards. So it seems it's either the installation from USB, or amd64, or the encryption, or the LVM or partition size - or a combination of these factors - causing the problems...
Now I burnt the 10.04.1 amd64 installer to a DVD, suspecting that maybe with the USB stick present at installation time, there might be a mixup with device names later or something like that. This installation is running right now, and has been for over THREE HOURS - now being at 33% in the section "Select and install software". Surely this must indicate some underlying problem... I have never seen an installation taking that long yet.
When I switch to another virtual console and poke around a bit, the system seems perfectly responsive, as you would expect from a quadcore machine. I can't even hear the hard drive work. It seems as though the installer worked in slow motion. Are there any known problems concerning volume size, disk size, maybe in conjunction with amd64? I'm at a loss to explain this.

Dont know where to add this topic... you can move it somewhere else if I missed topic. So my question: I own Intel i5-750 processor, should I install Ubuntu x68 or 64-bit PC (AMD64) version? As far as I know my processor is 64bit but this AMD64 is confusing me.

I have a 'Rackable Systems' server with an HDAMA mobo - Dual CPU Opteron 250 2.4GHz with 2x memory modules per CPU. It seems to run fine, but it hangs every hour or so! I am running Ubuntu 64-bot 10.10, which is currently a beta release so I haven't discounted that as the problem yet, but suspect it unlikely. However, I am downloading 10.04 as I type...dmesg spits out lots of awful messages like these:
[ 1314.920127] EDAC MC1: CE - no information available: amd64_edacError Overflow
[ 1315.920047] Northbridge Error, node 0, core: 0
[ 1315.920060] ECC/ChipKill ECC error.
[ 1315.920066] EDAC amd64 MC0: CE ERROR_ADDRESS= 0x1484410
[ 1315.920082] EDAC MC0: CE page 0x1484, offset 0x410, grain 0, syndrome 0x11c1, row 0, channel 0, label "": amd64_edac
(there are variations on the node, core, address, offset an syndrome etc.)I have tried swapping CPUs over and running with only CPU.I have also swapped all the memory around in almost every permutation.Another worrying symptom is that when I run memtest86+ from a boot disk, it shows zero errors up until the point where the server turns itself off without warning - it hasn't yet completed the test...

I have a Asus A8N-E motherboard with AMD64 processor and NVidia 6600 GT graphics card.I downloaded the AMD64 version of 10.04 (the boot+live cd) and tried booting with it. After looking at the screen showing Ubuntu loading with 5 dots moving forward for about 5minutes, the screen went blank (not completely blank as power-off but a very dark grey color). I waited for about 10-15 minutes in this state but nothing happened.During this whole 10-15 min period the disk usage on the machine was high.Eventually, I just turned off the machine and booted into windows (which was already present on my machine) successfully.Is that blank screen for such a long duration a normal step during installation or was a different process expected?

I've spent a frustrating afternoon trying to install Xubuntu 10.04 x64. I had already installed Win7 Pro 64, and have been attempting to install on a separate hard drive. It wouldn't even boot into Xubuntu install. Figured a bad burn on the Cd so I reburned the image I had down loaded using Ktorrent. It wouldn't boot either. I swapped out the DVD burner. Still no go. Redownloaded using Ktorrent including the torrent. Wouldn't boot into the installer.
I did a fresh burn. Still it wouldn't boot to the installer. I then downloaded Xubuntu again but from a mirror and not using Ktorrent. Good MD5SUM. Burned it again on another computer. Still wouldn't boot into the installer. I burned a copy of Kubuntu 10.04 x64 and it installed with no difficulty. I've installed Xubuntu 10.04 x86 several times on other computers win no difficulty. But I have 8 Gb of RAM on this machine and want to use Xubuntu 64.

I've been trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 on my custom built AMD Athlon FX-53 system to use as a web server. I downloaded the AMD64 desktop version and whenever I boot to the CD it'll go through the loading screen, bring up the install background and then the mouse cursor will appear. After that the mouse cursor keeps switching between the loading one and the regular one and it never fully loads the installer.
The system specs are:
AMD Athlon FX-53 @ 2.4 GHz (Stock)
1 Gb OCZ PC-3200 ram (2x512)
PNY Verto FX5200
Western Digital 40 Gb IDE hard drive
based off an Asus SK8V motherboard (Skate 5 to me...)
I was able to install the 32-bit version and I've tried 2 burns, one on a CD-RW and one on a CD-R and the checksum is the correct one based on whats posted on the site.

I was wondering if the AMD64 bit release of ubuntu is just a recompiled kernel with amd64 optimizations or if it is ALL 64 bit? I understand that an amd64 kernel doesnt have to come with a 64 bit system.

Currently our cluster is based on AMD opteron processors. We are going to add more nodes however I want to know is it good to add Intel xeon processors. They both claim to be x86 compatible however I don't know if they are really math each other.Does a program compiled on Intel xeon really works on opteron (amd64)?

I currently have a server that is running on the Linux kernel 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5xen and I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade it to a new official Red Hat non-xen kernel(currently 2.6.37.1).What is unique about this kernel is that it is NOT a virtual system kernel but an older XEN kernel with proprietary material removed.If it is possible I was wondering about any repercussions that may occur as a result of said update. This would include, any issues with potential data/driver losses as well as recovery procedures that may be used if something would happen to it during the upgrade.
