Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade Error: Not Enough Disk Space
Apr 29, 2010Im getting an error:
Not Enough Disk Space.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I think im getting this error because I didnt allocate enough space to the Ubuntu partition when I installed it. How do I allocate more space to the Ubuntu partition? If this is not possible, is it possible to install 10.04 from my Windows?

Fedora Installation :: Unable To Upgrade F13 To F14: Error At 95% Of Disk Test
Nov 17, 2010I'm trying to upgrade, but have this issue: usually I download the DVD iso, run checksum, burn it, test the disk, and when found ok, I run the upgrade. Now, however, I keep getting "disk not ok" at 95% of the disk test. I have downloaded and verified the iso twice, used 2 DVD's, 2 different DVD-drives, 2 different computers and keep getting this error at 95%.

Apr 9, 2010This is the third 9.10 install to do this on two different laptops, so wondering what's up...
In both cases, the goal was to leave a large chunk of unpartitioned disk after the Ubuntu partitions, for a second OS install or a filesystem Ubuntu cannot create like NTFS.
When I install with manual partitions, the system can't boot and asks for me to insert a system disk and press any key. When I reinstall telling Ubuntu to "use the entire disk" it then works.
First laptop, first try:
Remainder of the 500GB disk is free space.
Fails to boot, "insert system disk".
First laptop, second try without the /boot partition:
Remainder of the 500GB disk is free space.
Fails to boot, "insert system disk".
"use entire disk" works perfectly.
Second laptop, first try:
Same thing, non-system disk or disk error, insert system disk.
Second try "use entire disk" is currently in progress but I expect the same to happen.

It is right after boot process, and just when it should load grub. Grub is installed in the MBR. Windows7, is installed as well, and is not an option to remove. (Should not be the problem though).

Ubuntu Installation :: Error 29: Disk Write Error Then Trying Again Windows Seems To Boot But It Takes Much Longer
Aug 17, 2010i finally decided to updgrade from Hardy Heron to Lucid Lynx. for this i made a backup of my old install, then i couldnt find my Lucid CD so i used a Karmic one to partition my old ext3 to ext4. There were some errors but after trying a few times it worked. Installed Karmic, rebooted (worked fine), downloaded all updates - (did NOT reboot to let updates take effect) and upgraded to Lucid.
Everything went fine so far. Now when i try to boot into Lucid the system hangs, i've also got a windowsXP partition on there so i tried booting that, first grub tells me Error 29: Disk write error then trying again windows seems to boot but it takes much longer than it should and seems to hang.
Then i tried Karmic and Lucid LiveCD (which i found in the meantime) none of the LiveCDs make it to boot after about 20 minutes. (previously they worked fine)looking at the errors it seems to be something about the harddrive. Why the harddrive would stop the LiveCD booting is a mystery to me but the same messages appear when i select Recovery from the Grub menu so i guess the problem is related.

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Upgrade Because Disk Is Full
Jan 15, 2010I am trying to upgrade to 9.10 but it fails because the disk is full. I am running a Dell Mini with 16GB SSD...so there isn't a lot of free space to begin with. Added to that, I have some hefty applications (rosegarden, audacity, skype, etc) which I kind of need. Am I better off just sticking to 9.04? Are there any good ways to clean up the system and get rid of stuff that might be sticking around? I did apt-get clean and it didn't clean enough.
View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Upgrade From 8.04 To 10.04 Left 8.04 On Disk?
May 6, 2010My issue is that while I was upgrading from Hardy to Lucid, everything was going fine until the very end when some packages were badly corrupted (according to the installer) and the upgrade could not complete. When I rebooted, it would not load into the login screen, and instead just presented me with a console. However, 10.04 showed up under GRUB, I loaded 10.04, and it worked fine, so I just changed GRUB to load 10.04 by default. I managed to fix the broken package problem from 10.04.
The problem now is that, since it was a "partial" upgrade and terminated before completion, I still have 8.04 on my hard disk. I can still load 8.04 and still get the same console, instead of the login screen. I just wanted to know how I can "complete" the upgrade and get rid of 8.04. Except for that one issue, upgrade was successful.
Ubuntu Installation :: 'Not Enough Disk Space To Upgrade' From 9.04 To 9.10?
Oct 11, 2010which is a surprise as I've found Ubuntu beyond my expectations on all the machines I've run it on.I'm trying to upgrade my old desktop from 9.04 to 9.10 (and then 10.04 - same as my laptop), and am running into this message at the start of the upgrade process:"Not enough free disk spaceThe upgrade is now aborted. The upgrade needs a total of 3109M free space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 1088M of disk space on '/'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'."I've done a bit of searching and have followed the leads I've found but am still stuck. I've emptied trash, cleared out old kernels etc but it hasn't got me there.

Ubuntu Installation :: Distribution Upgrade To 10.04 - Not Enough Disk Space
May 2, 2010I am trying to upgrade my ubuntu distribution from 9.10 to 10.04 using update-manager. I have only 2G free in my / partition, and update-manager complains saying it needs 4G free in the / partition to upgrade.
I presume the space is needed to store downloaded packages. Is there any way I can change the download directory to some other partition (i have plenty of space in other partitions)?

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Natty Upgrade - LVM Grub (No Such Disk)
May 5, 2011I've had this problem on a couple of Ubuntu server upgrades and am keen to get to the bottom of it. Basically, with an Ubuntu 10.10 server installtion where LVM has been used, running through the do-release-upgrade process works perfectly until the reboot stage. Then grub complains with "no such disk" and dumps me out to the grub shell. From here, I can see (from ls) the following:
Code:
(hostname-swap_1) (hostname-root) (hd0) (hd0,5) (hd0,1) (fd0)
I can enumerate the filesystem on (hd0,1) which seems to contain the /boot filesystem and the filesystem on (hostname-root) seems to contain the / filesystem.
If I execute:
Code:
linux=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-image-2.6.38-8-server root=(hostname-root)
initrd=(hd0,1)/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-server
boot
It boots, but into busybox saying that the target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init.

Dec 22, 2009I'm trying to install Fedora for the first time on my Desktop. Unfortunately, upon restart once the installation is complete I get the following error:
Code:
This is from Fedora 12 x86_64 DVD. I presume that this obviously has to do with my disk selection during partitioning, during which I deselcted the two drives that I didn't want to be part of the install and left the one that I did selected. I also selected "use entire disk". The drive had copies of both Ubuntu and Windows 7 on it, which I expect were wiped out during install.
I know that the details are sparse...but that's all I did. I'm happy to go back into the installer to retreive any necessary information that may be needed/to reinstall.
Ubuntu Installation :: Disk IO Performance Degrades Horribly After Upgrade To 10.10?
Oct 18, 2010I upgraded my old Kubuntu installation to 10.10 Maverick Meercat and I am now experiencing a really annoying problem. I boot my computer and everything seems fine for a while, but eventually my disk performance drops to horrible levels. It's not gradual. It's fine one second and then abysmal the next.
If I do "cp file1 file2" and then kill the cp process after 10s, there are only a couple of MB copied.When I run dmesg after the performance degradation, I see this:

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: After 11.04 Upgrade Hard Disk No Longer Mounts
May 11, 2011I have one hard disk (call her HDA) that contains nothing but a single ext4 partition containing a backup of all my important data. I did a clean install of 10.10 on my primary hard disk (call her HDB) and from there proceeded to the 11.04 upgrade. In 10.10, I was able to read HDA just fine. However after the upgrade, I can no longer mount this drive.
When mounting from file browser:
Code:
Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
The end of dmesg said the following:

[516.932403] EXT4-fs (sda): bad geometry: block count 122096646 exceeds size of device (122096381 blocks)
For some reason my hard disk has a block count greater than the size of my device. I've done my background searching on this and tried a command line utility I've never heard of before:
Code:
# sudo e2fsck /dev/sda
e2fsck 1.41.14 (22-Dec-2010)
The filesystem size (according to the superblock) is 122096646 blocks
The physical size of the device is 122096381 blocks
Either the superblock or the partition table is likely to be corrupt!
Abort<y>? yes
And this is as far as I've got. I'm really hesitant to start fiddling around and experimenting with possible fixes because the backup data on this drive holds a decade's worth of work for me and is extremely valuable (hence why I have a spare drive for backups). I really didn't think that the Ubuntu upgrade process would mess with this drive, seeing as the Ubuntu install was contained on an entirely different drive. Any safest way for me to recover this data? Data preservation is the #1 priority for me here. I need to copy all of this data over to my primary drive where Ubuntu is installed. After that, I can reformat this "broken" backup drive.

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade To 9.10 Failed; Can't Boot And Have Encrypted RAID Disk?
Feb 23, 2010I was running Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop on a headless Pentium 4 machine which is our file, mail, web & fax server. The two x 250GB SATA hard disks were in a RAID 1 array with full disk encryption. Ran the 9.10 upgrade via WEBMIN and it failed. I should have known then to copy over everything to a backup disk, but instead I rebooted.
On restart the machine accepted my encryption passphrase but promptly hung with a mountall symbol lookup error - code 127. So I can't start the machine to get at the disks, and using a Live CD is useless as it has no way to open the RAID array to get at the encrypted partitions. Although we have data backed up (as at last night) I'd hoped not to have to rebuild the entire server from scratch. But its looking bad.I have taken one drive out and plugged it into another machine (Hercules), and the partitions show up as /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb3.
If it weren't for RAID, I could open /dev/sdb2 the main partition) in Disk Utility and enter my encryption passphrase to get access. But RAID adds a layer of obstruction that I have not yet overcome. I used mdadm to scan the above partitions and created the /etc/mdadm.conf file, which I edited to show the 2nd drive as missing (rather than risk corrupting both drives). I activated the RAID array with mdadm, and cat shows:
Code:
root@HERCULES# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md1 : active raid1 sdb3[0]
1815232 blocks [2/1] [U_]
[Code]...
I've been searching the web for hours but have yet to find someone with a solution to this situation. If anyone has a thought on how to access this disk I'd be pleased to hear from you. In the meantime I will start building a new (9.10) machine from scratch, without RAID, 'cos that's probably going to be necessary.
Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade From A Live Disk - After Grub The Screen Is All Black
Oct 21, 2010My ubuntu desktop died yesterday. I rebooted my computer in like 1 month and after grub, the screen is all black and it stays there... forever. So I decided to see if the problem persists or not when I completely upgrade my ubuntu to the latest version. So I downloaded the latest ubuntu iso from the site, burned it, and booted from CD and I see several selections to choose from the menu list. The second one was "Install Ubuntu". What I'm worried about is I don't know whether selecting 'Install Ubuntu' will erase all my previous data, or there will be an option to upgrade Ubuntu without erasing all the data. Is it safe to install from the live disk? Will my data be safe? Is there any way to upgrade my Ubuntu on the HD to the latest Ubuntu from a live disk?

Ubuntu Installation :: Cannot Upgrade To 10.4 0 Free Disk Space By Symlink System Directories?
Apr 30, 2010I cannot upgrade to 10.4, because my EEE 901 has a too small "system disk", 4GB. However, I do have enough space on my slower 16GB SSD disk. Can I move some recommended system directory there temporarily and symlink from the root disk? Would the upgrade data itself be a good candidate, perhaps? The work around would be to do a clean install of the new version, but I rather not, as I have some tweaking to do afterwards in that case. As it is now, I have 700MB of free space, and need about 1.4GB, if I'm not mistaken.
