Programming :: Exit In Script Files Cause Konsole Terminal Itself To Exit?
Apr 11, 2010I noticed that if I have "exit" in a bash script file., e.g. script.sh,that when the word "exit" is reached, and the script file being executed is not in the PATH nvironment, i.e. ". script.sh", the whole konsole shell profile is exited! What gives here? Is there another command compatible to "exit" to prevent this, or will I just have the leave the "." part in the PATH enviroment, which is, to my understanding, is not recommended? I desire for a "goto" function in bash script files

May 22, 2010In linux, creating thread is same as process (clone()), except the virtual address space gets shared with the parent.If a running main process(thread) creates new thread, and if main thread exits, why should the new thread too exit? both are different entities, The same doesn't happen if the child thread exits, the parent thread would be alive.

Feb 26, 2010I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 from 9.10 and when I try to boot into ubuntu now it goes to a screen where it says "waiting for /windows" and even after the loading bar is fully loaded it stuck on that screen. BTW I don't know if this will help but when I restarted it wouldn't work because grub was broken and I booted it 9.10 live CD and reinstalled it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Gave Up Waiting For Root Device
Oct 18, 2010this is my first setup of ubuntu. And I�m quite familar to Linux allthoug it�s been a while since my last setup. Anyway, my system is brand new and consist of the following parts:
AMD Athlon X2 240e on MSI 880GMA-E45 (SB850)
4GB RAM (DDR3)
All drives connected by SATA using onboard SB850 ordered by:
1 LG BluRay optical drive
2 WD Caviar Green WD10EARS 1TB
3 WD Caviar Green WD20EARS 2TB
4 WD Caviar Green WD20EARS 2TB
5 WD Caviar Green WD20EARS 2TB
6 WD Caviar Green WD15EARS 1,5TB
I set the SATA controller to AHCI because I want to set up a software raid (level 5) on the three 2TB-disks. The first disk (1TB) should be the ubuntu boot disk (no raid). The last one (1,5TB) is currently not connected - it will be added later. First I struggled booting the ubuntu server 10.10-CD (x64) from the bluray drive - after succesfull starting the setup procedure it told me that it cannot access the drive. It seems that drivers are missing. No problem - I connected an usb dvd drive to the system and gave it a try.
The boot order was set to usb-dvd, then bluray, then the first harddisk (1TB). Setup seems to run fine using the usb dvd drive. I�ve chosen the first disk (shown as /dev/sda) for the installation. It was automatically configured as one big root-partition and a small swap-partition. Grub was installed on the MBR of the first disk. But after restart GRUB tells me "Gave up waiting for root device" and "ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/whatever does not exist. Dropping to a shell!". Obviously the boot loader cannot find (or access) the volume containing the kernel.
I made some research and found some other people complaining about some mixup of hdaX and sdaX devices on SATA devices - but these statements where from 2007. Another point is that the USB optical drive is my boot device while the installation runs, but not afterwards - does this matter? I also tried installing Ubuntu server 10.04, but is behaves the same. Please keep in mind that the goal is to have ubunto server 64bit running on this system - that�s it. No dual boot is needed. And there is no data on any disk that should be taken care. It�s a very new system. Where should I start to fix this issue? What�s wrong with the current linux boot loader using SATA disks connected to SB850 SATA controller?
Ubuntu Installation :: NOT Waiting For Sound System To Respond?
Feb 12, 2011I've spend the morning poking through forums and attempting every fix suggested and still no luck on this one:At first i didn't have any sound. But now I do (and I'm not sure which solution fixed the problem). But I still don't have a Sound icon in my menu bar and when I attempt to access my Sound Preferences I receive the message: "Waiting for sound system to respond" which display indefinitely.
I tried:
- removing and reinstalling alsa packages
- deleting the .pulse folder
- adding a Pulseadio daemon

Installation :: Ubuntu 8.1 - Gave Up Waiting For Root Device
Feb 7, 2009I did an installation of Ubuntu 8.1 on my laptop. I ran the live CD first to check that everything was ok and got no problems. But when I try to boot I get this error:
Boot from (hd0,0) ext3 e194- long number
Gave up waiting for root device.
Alert /dev/disk/by-vvid/e194- long number
I tried a different hard drive with the same results. So I installed XP and everything worked fine. This makes me believe that all of the hardware is ok and I have some config screwy.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Gave Up Waiting For Root Device - Vertex3 SSD - 10.10
Apr 20, 2011About a week ago I changed the hard disk setup of my desktop PC. I installed a new SSD and changed the set-up of my old hard disks. Since I installed the SSD I have not been able to boot Ubuntu from it. When I reboot and chose Ubuntu at the grub menu then it ends with the following error: 'Gave up waiting for root device' and '/dev/disk/by-uuid/2bef4d2f-db0e-44b3-9e85-2065fad6f4a0 does not exist. Dropping to Shell!'
I have made a description of my current set-up and the changes made last week and I have copied the output from boot_info_script as well. Old setup:
Asus P5Q-Pro mainboard 3x Samsung Spinpoint F1 750GB with 2 drives in a (fake)raid 0 setup using Intel Matrix Raid Storage from the ICH10R chipset with 4 partitions: a system partition for Windows 7, a system partition for Ubuntu, a data storage partition for Windows and a linux swap partition 1 drive not in a raid array and split in 2 partitions: 1 ext4 partition used for my /home folder (since the Ubuntu system partition was not intented to be used to store documents) 1 ntfs partition used to backup documents, pictures/photo's and music from the Windows data partition on the raid array Since release 10.04 Ubuntu would install properly on the raid array. Before release 10 I had to use the alternate cd installation and install grub manually to avoid messing up the boot process.

Feb 10, 2009I've just tried to upgrade my Fedora 9 (x86_64) installation to Fedora 10 using the installation DVD. The upgrade seemed to proceed very smoothly, no errors ,nor warnings, it just seemed that it is upgrading grub (yes, I chose to upgrade grub as well) and all the packages (it took about 20 minutes). However, after the upgrade was over, it asked me to reboot my computer, so that's what I did, I took out the DVD and waited for GRUB to load.
It loaded just fine, but I was quite surprised when there was no option to boot Fedora 10 in the list. Ok, so I booted into Fedora 9 which went fine, the layout changed to the new one and some programs don't run. When I looked into /lib/modules I couldn't see any fc10 kernel installed. So the question is what happened and what should I do, so that it upgrades to fc10?

When I looked at the script itself, it says it's "triggering an error status to prevent the installer from overwriting ubuntu's nvdia packages."Some say this script can be ignored, but it seems to be the only thing keeping my install from working.Some say install from root prompt, some say GUI OK. Some say d/l from NVIDIA, some from repository. I have been doing root, init 3, removing old drivers, etc..
