Ubuntu :: Upgraded To 11.04from Disc From 10.04?
Apr 30, 2011
So I backed up the files I wanted to keep before I upgraded. When I started the install I was prompted with the upgrade option so I chose that. We is seems the whole "upgrade is botched. Certain programs were not reinstalled. Ok that shouldn't be a problem. Well when I went to reinstall them I get pure failures in the programs. From Tor to Firestarter. I also found hidden files from 10.04 in my home folder of programs that didn't make it.
Ok instead of find what is wrong. I am just going to reinstall fresh. My only question is I want my firefox bookmarks. I believe I save them in the back up. I went into the Mozilla folder and copied them. Well I think I just want to be sure. Is the file bookmarkbackup? I know a stupid question but I have one shot at this and want to make sure.

this blew my mind today, because i've been using ubuntu for 2 and half years. Brasero 2.28.2 in Karmic does not have an option enable multisessions when burning disc or import a disc which has a multisession.
Seriously, wtf is going on? This is supposed to be Ubuntu's default CD authoring software.

I'm trying to install files and everytime I manage to install from the first disc I succeed. When I get the the second disc I just keep clicking the "OK" button instead of "Cancel" and it keeps neglecting it.

I have just installed 11.3 x64. The installation went fine and worked for the first few hours. I ran the online update tool, and now it cannot find grub unless the installation disc is inserted and I select the "boot from hard disc" option.
I have read about the problem of the root partition being back, but not sure that's it.
sda1 - swap
sda2 - /
sda3 - /home
There used to be a repair tool in the installation disks. I could not find that in this media. Is that still available?

I'm sorry for this stupid question, but I have nowhere found it.I need to access to my USB disc from text mode (In Fedora LiveCD I see it and i can access /media/New Volume). In F12 runlevel 3 in mc I see it in /dev/disc/by-label as @Newx20Volume. But I don't know what is the correct path.

When everything was working fine, when I inserted the usb or disc an icon would appear asking if I wanted to mount the drive. Now nothing appears. It's been like this almost a year.

I downloaded a live disc and installed ubuntu. The following day it wouldn't boot up so I went to deleting the partition. I got ripped off $100 because they had no clue what to do so they wiped my drive and reinstalled just windows instead of just using a recovery disc and typing "fxmbr". My friend borrowed me his ubuntu disc and I purchased another drive so that each OS could have its own drive. Well now neither of our discs work. Mine is a downloaded one his is one he was sent from Ubuntu.I am downloading another iso right now.

I had Ubuntu 10.10, upgraded to 11.04 beta, didn't like Unity and tried installing gnome 3 with directions online. Killed my ubuntu install. So I loaded Mint and thought maybe I would like that better. Decided to go back to Ubuntu, but keep having bootloader problems at the end of the install. I can still install Kubuntu or Mint whenever I want, but try to install Ubuntu 10.10 or 11.04 from disc and same bootloader problem.

2 weeks ago I installed 10.04 using the same ISO disc I am trying to use now. Other computer consisted of - ASUS P5GDC-V Deluxe mobo, P4 3.0 w/HT, 2 GB DDR400 OCZ platinum, radeon x300 PCIe graphics card and a sony dual layer dvd r/wr drive, WD 500GB SATA HDD.
Now using the same disc Im trying to install ubuntu 10.04 on this rig. ASUS A7N8X Deluxe mobo, Athlon XP 3200+, 2GB DDR 400 OCZ platinum, Radeon 9800XT AGP card, WD 500GB SATA HDD. ROM drive is set to first boot priority. It seems like it starts to boot, screen gets purple tinted background, and the small symbol/ guy show up at the bottom. Then the rom drive has some activity but the screen just goes blank and nothing ever happens.
I read somewhere that some older DVD rom drives can have trouble reading burned ISO images so I took the working ubuntu HDD out and put it in this computer but the same exact thing happened.

I have just got my 10.04 LTS CD from Canonical.
I was too impatient and upgraded to 10.04. The up-gradation was not without its flaws, but I have worked around a number of issues and I am happily working on it now.
I have installed a number of other software on the 10.04 upgraded version like Eclipse, GATE (NLP software), BasKet Notes, Thunderbird etc. If I install the LTS version will I have to re-download and install all of these things? Or is it portable?
I use only Linux on my laptop and so the stability is very important.

I upgraded a week ago to ubuntu 10.10 (amd64). I was unable to boot in 2.6.35-22 so I have been using 2.6.32-25. I tried again last night after installing updates to 2.6.35-22. Still no luck.I gave up since this was much like what happened a week ago and I couldn't find any solutions then. (I ran memtest then.)

The software manager has been nagging me to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 for some time now. I finally gave in and clicked on Upgrade. After the upgrade completed, my computer won't start. It just flashes Ubuntu for a split second and goes to a black screen. I happen to have the 10.04 CD from Canonical, and I tried that, and it won't launch the installer either; just a logo and a black screen. Since I can't even get to the terminal to diagnose and fix whatever's wrong, I'm installing 9.10 from the CD that I ordered from Canonical a long time ago. I went through all the graphical options just like the first time I installed 9.10, and it's in the process of installing right now.
I don't really have time to futz with it because I need my laptop for when I go and visit my mum for Thanksgiving. Maybe I'll try after the holidays if I can get some feedback on what might have gone wrong with 10.04.

CD-R/W+DVD-R/W drive works fine for reading.
The last time I used it to burn was about a year ago. New discs are detected and I am offered to burn in K3b but K3b asks for media to be inserted (it already is).
Searched on some of these errors and this is a problem for others with indifferent solutions. Username is in cdrom group and /dev/scd0 is group cdrom rw. Latest updates and reboot changed nothing. Plus I am getting the k3b locale error even though I have LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" in my /etc/default/locale.
K3b runs after the warning but the Burn CD Image dialog always displays Burn Medium: Please insert an empty CD-R(W) medium... even though there is a CD-R in the drive.
So, I have a 10.04 ISO and no way to burn it.
Code:
$ wodim --devices
wodim: Overview of accessible drives (1 found) :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 dev='/dev/scd0' rwrw-- : '_NEC' 'DVD+RW ND-5100A'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've had some problems with my ubuntu lately (>.<) and would like to use my Windows 7 disc to install windows side by side with ubuntu (for compatibility reasons). The problem is, my computer won't boot the disc on startup, won't read it at all, and thus I can't install it. How can I make Ubuntu read the Windows 7 disc? All other discs work fine.
Its not just my disc- I've used this disc on other computers no problem, and my Ubuntu reads other discs without any problems.

I had ubuntu with grub2 on my external, with 2 partitions, sdc1 and sdc2 i had to install CentOS but the only 2 options when installing was "install on sda" or "don't install bootloader" and I chose don't install because I need my external to be bootable and now the grub from my external is broken, no file found.
My question is how do I install grub 2 on /dev/sdc and update it so I can boot it?

I'm trying to boot a Windows 7 disc from my friends Acer desktop. I was planning on overwritting his copy of Windows Vista with 7 and then installing Ubuntu beside it, but it won't boot from the disc. It will however, boot from the Ubuntu LiveCD. It's not the disc, because I can boot from it on my computer just fine.

I am using a bought 10.04 disc that I have used only twice with success on other computers to duel boot with Win7 on a new Toshiba laptop but it goes so far and then just hangs. It has gone as far as 93% and then stops so what can be wrong.
