View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Blinking Cursor During Boot - Can't Progress?
Feb 10, 2011I am attempting to install Ubuntu 64Bit Server 10.04 on a new server.
Server Specs:
Xeon E5620
12GB RAM
2X 160GB 7200 RPM in RAID1 (Onboard Software RAID)
Super Micro X8DTI-8
I am doing a typical install with no special functions on a RAID1 onboard Intel array. I know the array works because I tested it by installing Windows Server 2003 which works fine. The RAID also shows as healthy in the BIOS.
This problem is very difficult to remedy because everything seems to install fine with Ubuntu but when you reboot after the install you get a blinking cursor _ and nothing else. It appears that something happened when loading the OS but it's impossible to get past the blinking cursor because you can't type anything or escape out of it. The only thing that it will register is Ctrl+Alt+Del which will restart the server.
The funny thing is it does not display the typical Sigkill and show processes shutting down. The screen goes black and it restarts only to return to the blinking cursor. I am on my 6th attempt at an install with ubuntu and I am seriously considering switching over to windows unless.
I am almost certain this is a RAID issue because I can load the Ubuntu on 1 drive without any issues but I always get the blinking cursor in the RAID.

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: 10.10 Installer Shows No Progress After Formatting Partition
Apr 24, 2011I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 on a brand new 500GB hard drive I just purchased and installed in my machine. I boot from the CD and instruct Ubuntu to install to this drive and tell it to "erase and use the entire disk" for this 500GB drive. After moving forward from that, I see it saying a message about creating an ext4 partition for root "/" and then shortly after the entire install dialogue goes away. All I am left with is the little circle cursors spinning round (mouse input still works) and the installation background. The HDD activity light was still on though. I gave it about 3 hours before I finally gave up and tried again.
When I tried again, I saw that it did create two partitions (root and swap) during the last attempt. The same thing happened, although now even mouse input isn't responding so my system is completely locked up. HDD activity remains active this time as well. Running Ubuntu from the CD works fine. The only problem I saw with it was when I ran gparted from the CD and tried to manually create a ext3 partition on my new disk drive. When I tried that, I ran into a similar occurrence (couldn't run any programs, eventually system locked up) and had to reboot.
I have a second hard disk but I have a lot of valuable data on that and don't want to mess around with it. It could be a hardware failure, but that seems unlikely to me as this is a brand new Seagate disk drive. I suppose I could try installing it on a spare partition on my other drive and see what happens, but other than that I'm out of ideas.
Fedora Installation :: Removing The Blue / White Progress Bar?

Fedora Installation :: Resize Of NTFS Partition On Install - No Progress Indicator On The Installer
Apr 13, 2009I am doing a fresh install of Fedora 10 64bit on my PC. What I have done is, freshly installed Vista Home Premium 64 bit on the entire Hard Drive (680GB), then fired up the live CD and told the installer to resize sda1 (The windows partition) to about a 60:40 ratio. I intend to dual boot the system
Now the thing is, it's been running for half an hour now and there's no progress indicator on the installer so I don't know if its actually doing anything. Well there is a progress indicator but it's nonsensical, it just moves backward and forwards. The HDD indicator LED on my computer is flashing every now and again, but not constantly as I expect it to?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Hplip-gui's Toner - Ink Meter
May 31, 2011How accurate is the ink/toner meter in the HP printer toolkit (hplip-gui)? The meter says my toner level is "good/ok" and displays a black bar with tick marks, but I'm skeptical of its accuracy. I bought this Laserjet P1006 last January, with a starter cartridge of toner that was rated for around 120 pages (if I recall), and have printed occasionally. I'm afraid of running out of toner right when I need to print something important and time-sensitive. Since it doesn't appear to be possible to look inside the toner cartridge (sorry, this is my first laser printer ), I can't do anything except hope the HP toolbox measures my toner level accurately.

I'm wondering how to show progress of a cp or mv command. The man page says -v should do it, but it seems it doesn't show any progress at all. Is it possible to show progress info with cp or mv? Or, is there a different command I could use that would show a progress bar.

After I removed it, I set it up to extend my Vista partition into the unallocated space. It's been going for three hours so far (which I expected) but the progress bar is now stuck. The timer's stopped and everything; it's not increasing infinitely like when your internet cuts out when downloading something, it's just stopped. Here's a screenshot:[URL]..
I know to resist the allure of the Cancel button, but I don't really know what to do here. It's been sitting here for about half an hour with no sign of budging.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Allow Logins When There Is A Shutdown In Progress?
Jun 24, 2010I've got a server that I just use for backing up and archiving files. Since I don't need access to it often I just keep it powered off. I set up wakeonlan and have port 9 and port 22 forwarded to it.
I travel fairly often, and how its set up now, I can send the magic packet to the connection its on and wakeonlan kicks in and powers up the server. Then I can sftp into and access the files I need and then shut it down again in ssh.
It all works good until there's a power outage. For some reason after a power outage wakeonlan doesn't work.
Here's a workaround for this: I can set the system to automatically power up after a power outage. Problem is, the computer could be on for a week or more, wasting power before I log in and turn it off. So the workaround for that is to put a "deadman's switch" where a script will run at startup that will run "shutdown -q -P +5" which will power off the system after five minutes.
After I run wakeonlan I can ssh in and run "shutdown -c" to cancel that shutdown and still use it. If there's a power outage, once power is restored, the system will start up and then automatically shutdown again and be ready for the next wakeonlan signal I send.
Everything is flawless, except one problem. When "shutdown -q -P +5" executes, it disables all new logins. If I'm fast enough I can ssh in before the shutdown program disables logins, but not always. What I want is a way I can run shutdown without disabling logins.
