Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Boot After Installing 10.04 From Minimal Cd On USB Stick
Aug 11, 2010I used unetbootin (on another machine) to put the ubuntu 10.04 minimal amd64 .iso onto a usb stick. I used it to install a minimal system on a new 64-bit laptop (dual booting with Windows 7). Now, when I turn on the machine I get my choice of OS. When I pick Ubuntu, I get a blinking cursor, the harddrive is accessed. Then the cursor disappears, the harddrive is quiet, and nothing else happens.

Jun 15, 2009I live in a country where 1Mbit broadband is a premium service for large businesses. I am paying a little over $40 a month for a 128k connection with monthly capping. I want to download Fedora but the download is just huge for my connection, especially as it is used for work 14 hours a day. I have attempted the LiveCD and got the 'ext4 cannot be used for boot' error. I also have several other specialised distros on this machine and it's going to be a pain inserting a new boot partition just for Fedora.
Like it is possible with Slackware, can I just download the first CD of the Fedora 11 set and get a minimal install from this or does Fedora need the whole set of disks? Is there a simple enough net install option that I could use instead? I can't understand why they can't just release something like Ubuntu's alternate install CD.
Fedora Installation :: Boot - Grub Drops Into Its Minimal Shell And Gives A Command Line
Jun 12, 2009I'd like to say I'm very impressed with Fedora 11. I'm a long time Linux user and I've tried many distros. But, I usually keep only the best on my laptop. For a long time that was Ubuntu but, I think Fedora 11 has made some key improvements over Ubuntu and I'm eager to switch. The problem is: I haven't been able to run Fedora as anything other than on the Live CD. Everything works perfectly and it installs but, when I reboot, Grub begins. Instead of booting, however, Grub drops into its minimal shell and gives me a command line.
I've tried installing it a number of ways now and have read much about the problems with Ext4 on Grub and took special care to see that Grub has its own, separate, /boot ext3 partition. Even then, no luck. My hardware should work fine. I've got an HP DV-5 with 4GB RAM, AMD Turion 64-bit dual-core @ 2 Ghz, and an IDE 250GB hard drive. I'm working with the 64-bit Fedora 11 Live disc with KDE as the Gui.

Feb 17, 2010After a long time I tried ubuntu(9.10) again on my fileserver, I have some remarks; why does a minimal server installation include X/openoffice? I don't need document conversion on a fileserver and I bet a lot of people don't. Wouldn't it be better to create a new server package and leave minimal minimal? low memory installs (64mb) don't work unless you configure swap by hand in between things, 64mb ram is a lot in my eyes. I mean, not to be rude but if I wanted all this I could've better installed Solaris.
That said it's stable and running fine. Since it's my home fileserver I tried to convert my previously created raid10 mirror on an adaptec 1200 card to a softraid 5 solution. This is wat I did:

Debian Multimedia :: Xrdp Minimal X And Start App At Boot
Mar 9, 2016I'm running debian 8.3 (kernel 4.1) on a BeagleBone black and writing a program with C# (vs2015) along with mono on the beagle. So far everything is working out great. What I'm trying to figure out now is how to make this setup run like a kiosk with it booting into my program with a graphical environment but with no actual desktop (just a blank screen). There will be an LCD showing the program but at the same time I want the program available through a remote connection.
I've got the blank desktop working via VNC but I think I should change to xrdp (the target users all have windows with remote desktop connection installed by default but what vnc is or have the permissions to install a vnc client).
Anyway, I think getting xrdp started with my program at boot will be pretty simple (famous last words?). I simply start the xrdp instance in rc.local then use the session script to start my program.
What I cant wrap my head around is not having two copies of my program running - one showing on the LCD using HDMI and the other running on a second desktop through xrdp...

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: 9.10 Minimal Install On Netbook
Feb 19, 2010I've been playing with Ubuntu for severla years, although I've been a casual user, always just installing from the live disc. I'm comfortable with apt-get, and not scared to format, reformat, get angry, calm down, reinstall, etc.
I'd like to upgrade my Dell Mini 9 netbook wti 9.10. one of my problems with 9.04 is space. with the standard install I'm using 3.7 of my 4 Gb of HD and want to try and streamline that. I've starting have problems upgrading my apps because of space to downlod the upgrade to.
I plan on formating and starting from scratch with the minimal CD (transfered to USB), but I want a clear recipe of steps.
Main goals:
- Standard gnome interface (not remix)
- Open office writer, calc, and impress
- Chromium
I know once I get started to type "cli" to install the basics, but then what? Many of the guides I've seen online are several years old. I can handle chromium and Open Office once I'm all up and running, but I don't want to install and then uninstall firefox, gimp, etc.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Possible To Do Minimal Install With 3G Modem?
Jan 13, 2011I recently downloaded the latest minimal Ubuntu ISO from the official download page.
Is it possible to do a minimal install if I do not have Ethernet capable internet?
I use one of those 3G (cellular) USB modems from companies like Verizon. Basically, it's a cell-phone, with the phone component taken out.
I did something similar with Debian recently, but I had to install the kernel along with the 'dpkg' package, to the HDD. From there, I had to reboot into the core system, install the packages like ppp, wvdial, etc, and then continue with a fresh install of the rest of the system.
There doesn't seem to be a way for me to either install the core files to HDD, or install the internet connectivity packages in the live environment for my modem.

May 25, 2011I have a couple of 64bit Maverick installs from the minimal CD.They each have about 1100 packages installed. When I started to upgrade one to Natty with the Upgrade Manager, it told me it wanted to install 205 new packages (along with upgrading 877).205 new packages seems like a lot of growth in the minimal install.Why do I need those 205 packages?Then I looked at the minimal CD page where I saw that the minimal CD itself (which has lists of packages not the packages) grew from 15.6 to 22MB.So, did the minimal install just bloat up with Natty or what? Is there an even-more-minimal install?
