My HDD is not showing up anywhere in Ubuntu OR Windows (I Dual Boot)I got a new 1Tb Samsung HDD, It was showing up in Disk Utility, where I was partitioning it and adding a filesystem, but then I had a power failure, and obviously, it all turned off.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was foolishly messing around with Grub trying to get it so it only show my two most recent kernel versions of Ubuntu and Windows 7. The tutorials on how to do this were not clear, so I deemed it not a big deal and ultimately didn't end up making any changes. However when I restarted to boot into Windows 7 it was gone for Grub's boot list. I looked at the grub.cfg file and in it under os-prober, where i'm assuming Windows 7 should be there was only Vista (which wouldn't boot when I tried it, just a black screen). I had upgraded from Vista over the internet when Windows 7 first came out, then installed Ubuntu and it worked fine until this. I am using 64-bit Ubuntu 9.10, and have Grub 1.97 beta~4 installed, which was installed with Ubunutu.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI Currently am running Ubuntu 10.10 on a hard drive with three partitions. One with Ubuntu, a Media partition (Music, Videos, pictures, etc.) and the last is my Windows 7 installation. I can acess all of these partitions in nautilus as well. However when I start up my computer it automaticly loads into Ubuntu and when I manage to see Grub I only see 3 Entries Which are the Ubuntu kernel, Ubuntu recovery Kernal and memtest86+. How do I make Grub recognise my Windows 7 Installation?

I have freshly installed Win7 and Ubuntu 10.10 and it is not automatically discovering the partition (previously with Win7 / Ubuntu 10.04 it did).Is there a file I can manually edit, or a command to run?
Is there something I need to do to access my files from vista? Maybe I'm not looking in the right place? I'm just sick and tired of windows and would like to eventually migrate to ubuntu.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy server name, salamander, is not showing up in windows networking or in the networking items on linux computers. I have checked, double checked and tried several samba settings to see if I can make it work, but to no avail. Its shares can be accessed by any computer by going directly to 10.10.1.101, salamander's fixed IP.
My workstation, bear, shows up. I edited hosts to read: "10.10.1.101 salamander"
Any machine can access the share on salamander using the ip address, but not even Bear can connect directly with the computer name.
When I go to networks in Salamander, all it views is itself and a windows network. Inside the windows network is only salamander.
Bear shows up in the list of servers, and also has samba running. Eagle and Bearcub are also ubuntu without samba and do not show up in the list either. Understandably so.
Here is my smb.conf:

workgroup = WILDLIFE
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)

I installed wubi to try ubuntu out. It didn't show up in the windows boot manager, so I manually went to startup options and changed the default os from windows to ubuntu, trough right clicking My Computer, and going into the "advanced" tab. Now I don't know how to revert back to windows because this does not have a "My Computer". My os is windows XP professional, by the way.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to triple boot osx, win7 and ubuntu 10.10 on my macbook pro. This is the way I did it:
-Installed osx and created 2 partitions in disk utility, one for osx and another formated as dos fat to manually hybritized my drive and allow for windows installation (the new bootcamp is currently messed up, so can't do it that way).
-Installed win7 by bio booting the cd, and deleting the formatted partition (dos fat) and creating a new one via win installation.
-Installed ubuntu by bios booting the cd and creating its own partition in setup.
Now, when I turn on my macbook and press alt, 2 icons come up, mac and windows (so good so far!). But when I go into the windows option, grub loads and I see 5 entries:
-Ubuntu
-Ubuntu safe mode
-Memtest
-OSX 32 bit
-OSX 64 bit
Obviously osx is not going to boot under bios boot. But where is win7 that should be in the list?
I'm not very experienced in working with Ubuntu. I did try it using Wubi to install and that I liked very much. But now with the latest version (10.10) the wubi installer isn't showing every option. How do I get the old interface where you can install it alongside Windows? The first attachment is what I get when opening wubi.exe and the second one is what I would like. That is a 10.04 version.

I have just got a new Compaq/HP netbook with Windows 7, and I have downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 (using my main Ubuntu system) and put it on a USB stick to load it "alongside" Windows.
At install phase on the new machine there is no option shown to add Ubuntu alongside Windows; only two options are shown, to erase the disk entirely and load Ubuntu, or the advanced option to select the disk partitioning manually.
I don't want to do either of these!
What happened to the third option, share the disk between operating systems?
I have used Linux for years, and don't want Windows, but it is safer to be able to boot up Windows for some things (testing ADSL line for Orange France, for instance).
As subject; none of my fedora machines appear in Windows' > Entire Network.I have installed SAMBA and started it; edited the config file:-

I just installed OpenSuSE 11 and after it was done installing and i rebooted, Windows doesn't show up on the boot screen I only get the default OpenSuSE and Fail Safe options.
All i know is that vista is on sda3 when i partitioned my drive. Here is my menu.lst entry for windows:
###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: windows###
title windows
rootnoverify (hd0,8)
chainloader (hd0,0)+1
I am very new user to ubuntu and new to this community,first of all if i make anything wrong in this post please forgive and guide me,
My friend have a laptop which was running in windows 7.Last week he installed Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.But after that boot menu is not showing and it is automatically booting to ubuntu.
So i pressed Shift key during boot and checked boot menu list,which is showing only linux OS ,Linux OS recovery mode and memtest86,No windows 7 option.
So I did following things.
Step1: Tried to find out the partitions using fdisk -l
2.So i tried to add a manual entry by editing the /etc/grub.d/40_custom file like below ,and changed the permission using chmod +x update-grub command
3.Run the update-grub command
But it is not updating the manual entry,The above update-grub command output showing the update-grub command not even entering into the /etc/grub.d/40_custom file because i put echo in that file in that ,and that also not coming.
I installed Fedora 14 alongside windows, overwriting my old Ubuntu 10 partition. Unfortunately, now the GRUB loader only recognizes my Fedora partition and the built-in windows recovery utility partition. I checked the disc utility and my windows partition still definitely exists, I just can't seem to boot into it.

Their are certain programs that I can only run in windows and I need windows open to install them.
So I made a text file on a windows machine and brought it home on a flashdrive. When I opened it in PCMan File manager it did not show, but executing ls in a terminal shows the text file just fine. It is the only one that appears to be missing in PCManfm. I've had a similar problem going the other direction (Linux to Windows, but with pdfs) many months ago. here is ls -l

The file is Translation.txt. What is different about this file that it would do such a thing? It doesn't look at all different from above.
The toolbar is completely empty and when I run apps or open windows, the icons do not show up. The weird thing is when I select 'Panel Properties' and UNSELECT 'expand', then it shows up. But then my toolbar shrinks and doesnt go 100% in width.

I recently installed Ubuntu in my PC, without uninstalling windows coz it`s not really mine, its my father`s. When he saw the boot (like a month later, he REALLY uses the PC...) he went crazy and instantly ordered me to "uninstall that thing". Of course i`m not stupid to do that after a month of seeing how Ubuntu is... I want to know if/how can I make the pc start on windows auto, without prompting by showing the choose system screen, and when i open boot menu (i don`t remember, but i think its F-eight) i have both choices, so I can keep Linux without him knowing.
