I have win XP installed on my PC, then i formated partition to install ubuntu on it. after installing ubuntu on the formated partition, i can't access win xp. when i start the pc, the ubuntu is loaded without asking me which os to load. I installed boot_info_script.sh & its results are as follows:
Boot Info Script 0.60 from 17 May 2011
============================= Boot Info Summary: ===============================
=> Grub2 (v1.97-1.9 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks at sector
1 of the same hard drive for core.img. core.img is at this location and
looks in partition 7 for /boot/grub.

For some time now I have kept 2 partitions for (K)ubuntu versions so go back if the new one is troublesome.So, I have a common /boot partition, 2 partitions for (K)ubuntu versions and a common data partition which both versions can access.After installing 10.10 I lost the grub connection to the earlier version. This did not happen in the past. So far I've failed to get it back by various attempts to do so.Did I make a mistake in allowing the /boot partition to be formatted during install of 10.10 (can't remember what I did before) or has the /etc/grub.d/os_prober in 10.10 failed in some way?

I've tried to install FEdora 15 using the Fedora 15 DVD for i686 architecture. However, after the step where I chose the setup for GRUB boot options, I got this error: "Some of your repositories require network access but networking could not be setup" (or something similar). Then I only had the option to exit the installer, but after reboot there was no GRUB and I have no means even to boot back to Windows.
How to install Fedora without networking or is Fedora the only distro so messed up that this can't be done? I've tried the Live CD/USB version but that version has no C compiler to allow me to install networking drivers after install completes. Now I was told to try the full DVD, by the full DVD managed to mess up my computer completely.

Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 upgrade failed. This machine is purely linux (i.e. no windows partition). I know I should have saved my data first. I can no longer boot from hard drive. I can boot from 9.1 install disk and upon interigating the file system, can see my folders are still there but need to know how to access/save them before re-installing 9.10.

This might be a really silly question, but I installed Ubuntu yesterday (which is awesome) but I can't seem to locate any of the other drives that I had hooked up. It's as if the partition with the install is the only one in existence. Is there some trick of the trade I'm not aware of or what's up?

I do a lot of testing and developing on an Ubuntu machine at my university, and I don't have sudo access to the machine. It hasn't been a problem so far because the tools I've needed have been installed.
However, I have to build OpenCV, which has a lot of dependencies, some of which (notably, libbz2-dev) aren't installed.
I have access to localtmp on the local drive, and of course my own home folder (which is on NFS). Is there a way for me to install a local version of the tools I need using apt-get without sudo access? If not, is there another way to install them? I've been using CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/localtmp for some builds, but I'm not sure if this is the way to go, or if there is a better way.
tl;dr Is there a way to install applications locally without the ability to sudo?

I was having a hard time configuring ubuntu server with command line so this is the steps I did to install the GUI;
Code:
then
Code:
then
Code:
The GUI started up fine and I logged in as root, then I tried Update Manager and received this error message:
Requires installation of untrusted packages
I tried this in terminal window
Code:
and got
W: Failed to fetch [url]........(-5 - No address associated with hostname
So I did System Testing and got the result that my network was fine but my internet failed!
I could do command line update no problem before installing GUI. I can see it on the network on another computer though.
Trying to setup without the GUI is starting to look easier than with.

Here is my problem: I had a 500GB HDD, with the fallowing partitions:
C - 100GB - NTFS - Windows 7
D - 300GB - NTFS - (for staffs)
H - 100GB - NTFS - unused
Yesterday I installed Ubuntu on tha last one (H), wishing to keep also the others two partitions. Now I can not access the first two, I don't see them any more. In my Disk Usage appears only the linux partition and one "Unallocated Space" of 400GB
Do you think that i have a chance to recover my data from the two partitions that I can't see them? code...

need it for a project. basically, im working off a cluster that runs on linux, i dont really know what distribution it is, but i dont think it will matter too much. Im trying to install something. I dled the source code did "./configure"d then i went into src directory and did "make install". the error message is that, i cannot create the directory /usr/local/lib/vmd. so...i believe this is because i am my own user and not the root...is there anyway to get around this? i need to install this and avoid asking the root user to do it for me

I'm new to SUSE. I had some virus issues with Windows Vista and decided to change my OS.
I have the modem set up and still can't get the internet to come up. I get the mozilla blank webpage, but I am connected to the internet server. What can I do to get full internet access if everything seems to be working they way it should except for the blank webpage? I know I must be missing something but what?
Also, how do I open Yast to use it? I think I opened it by accident and got some things done

i got an Compaq proliant ML530 server that i installed CentOS 5.3 on i tested the connectivity to the LAN and to the WAN and everything worked. Then i ran:
"yum install xen xen-kernel"
and after that i can't connect to the network if i ping my other servers there's no replay. i assume this have to do with Xen bridge. But since the tutorials dont mention any configuration needed, i assumed that it would work out of the box.

I'm currently working on a project in a secure environment with no internet access and I need to install Ettercap and Wireshark on the machines. I thought this would be a simple task of loading Wireshark onto a USB but this did not work and replied with error messages such as: ' Invalid config x86_64-unknown-linux'
what does the error message mean and do I need internet access to install the apps?

I was wondering if anyone has any idea how to install a window manager without root access? I'm trying to install Fluxbox. I unpacked the .tar.gz and ran ./configure followed by make. I'm unsure of the next step- usually I would just do 'make install' but as I don't have root access I cannot do this. I found this file which I think may have something to do with the process that should come next, it seems to have some lines about window managers (~/.xsession):
[Code]...
61 directories, 868 files I am running CentOS version 5. I hope that's some information for someone to have some ideas?

What distro is the easiest for a new person to get started? I also need wireless internet access. I've tried to do this once before with linux (mandriva as I recall, I gave up)before and had problems installing the programs that would allow that. Also are there Linux versions that I could install on my pocket PC?

"incorrect access detected, this server may be accessed only through [URL] address,"
Apache is working fine because i get the "It work's!" message.

I use openSUSE 11.1 since quite a bit and I frequently use YAST (not as root of course). However, since the problems I have to deal with while trying to install WiFi internet access I meet the following problem. I call YAST, get the small authentication screen, I give the right password, which seems to be recognized as such, but I never see YAST appearing. So I can't manage neither my hardware, nor my software.

Installing from Live USB: Installing from USB on my desktop (used this method for laptop install) goes without a hitch. EXCEPT, I notice there is no support for my wireless card chipset (Atheros 7413, used /bin/lspci to find). I download the drivers for Linux, but I need Make to build the drivers...ok. I download the Make files from my laptop, make coffee, slap the makefiles onto a flash drive and run the configure file on my desktop version of SUSE. Whoops, need a c compiler (odd that openSUSE did not come with gcc? bit confused on that). If you can't tell by now, I've been using linux for less than a month so I am what you would call a noob? After the lack of c compiler, I drove to my office to snag some DVDs to download the DVD iso image, hoping it would have some form of c compiler/make packaged, since the description does say the DVD has more software (can't find any prebuilt versions of either...?)
Installing from DVD: This was my next step. I wrote the iso image to a DVD and proceeded to boot from DVD. The installer fails at the system analysis, saying it cannot "create a repository". writing the iso to a second DVD produces the same result. Googling has not yielded a solution. tl;dr can't use openSUSE on my desktop because my wireless chipset is not suported by SUSE. I need Make to build the drivers, but I need a c compiler to compile Make, and I need the internet to get both for my machine.

I'm installing Lotus Domino on Linux Server. Did anyone know how to reverse proxy for HTTP and POP3/IMAP on linux ? I've problem when try to open webmail from internet. I can't access webmail and POP3 from internet. Seems because connection from internet can't directly to Domino through Firewall. If using apache seems no problem with the webmail, but POP3 still can't access.

I'm thinking of installing Ubuntu, but before I do that I'd like to know if installing it removes your copy of Windows. If it does, is there any way I can work around that?
