View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Restore Accidental Delete Of Home.disk?
Oct 8, 2010I think I did something dumb. I was trying to increase the space allocation to my /home virtual disk on my wubi installation of Ubuntu. I ran the wubi-add-virtual-disk utility (as I had done before the first time I increased my space), but I received the message "The target virtual disk /host/ubuntu/disks/$virtual_disk already exists, aborting." So, thinking that all my data was in a different path and that the file home.disk was probably just some configuration file of little importance (I should've checked and I should've made a backup of it myself), I browsed to /host/ubuntu/disks and ran "rm home.disk", then reran the wubi-add-virtual-disk utility (stored in my still existing /home/cportiz/Downloads directory), and I thought I had successfully increased my space.
To my horror, upon restarting my computer, my desktop was empty and basically unusable as there is nothing to click on. I rebooted on recovery mode and logged on in terminal mode, then browsed to /home and found an EMPTY folder. I ran locate home.disk and found a file at /host/ubuntu/disks with the size that I specified when I ran the virtual disk utility, but I don't know where my old contents are. I didn't just delete all that stuff. it is still somewhere on my hard drive and that all I need to do is modify the home.disk file in this or that way or hit restore. There is not a home.backup file at /host/ubuntu/disks/.
Anyhow, if indeed I've lost everything, I can probably restore most of the work I'd done (only a couple of weeks worth) pretty quickly. Some of the files were backed up in other computers, etc... How to restore my wubi installation to a functional one? I would prefer not to have to reinstall ubuntu altogether since I believe the majority of the packages I've installed were housed on /opt meaning I can get back up and running compiling certain programs from source fairly quickly and most of the recovery effort is in rewriting some of the files that were stored in /home.
Ubuntu Servers :: Attaching Server (with LAMP) To A Windows Network
Oct 30, 2010I am sure there is a nice guide out there somewhere but I cannot find it. My question is: The company I work for has a fully windows environment, servers and clients. The current server is on a Windows 2000 Server and I plan on replacing that. I wish to use Ubuntu server with Joomla for this purpose. This is my first venture into a purely command line interface, although I have played around with Ubuntu desktop in the past. My first question right now is: How do I log onto the Windows Network (active directory) from the ubuntu server. eth0 is reporting a valid internal IP on the network, so its been picked up okay.
Edit: I also want to assign a static internal IP address instead of grabbing from the DHCP. Edit2: Thinking about it, as the ubuntu server and windows server can ping each other do I even need to log into the domain? The server will only be serving web pages.
Fedora :: Disk Missing In /home Filesystem?

This was 'df -h /home' straight after a fresh install. It says it's 357G in size, but even though 272M is in use, it's telling me I have only 339G left available. Where did that extra 18G go?
General :: Get More Disk Space Into My Home Folder?

Can I install the applications under some different path? without using apt-get?

Apr 9, 2011Was installing wine 1.2.2 on ubuntu 10.10 my home folder had 60GB of free space before the installation started I chose to install manually. I installed all the dependencies manually from terminal. Then compiled wine 1.2.2 from the source code using ./configue make While running the 'make' process my 60GB home folder ran out of disk space. The make process was non ending. Ultimately it got aborted due to lack of space. Can't retrieve disk space that was lost since then. Tried with terminal commands like
apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove
Even tried to get into the wine source folder from terminal and use 'make uninstall' Nothing works and I now have only 50Mb of disk space on my home folder
CentOS 5 :: Move User's Home Directory To A Different Disk?
Oct 20, 2009I would like to move a user's home directory to a different disk. Is there a "clean" way to do this? Specifically, is it safe to just copy all the .* files to the new destination and then change the home in the user config? Or are there maybe environment entries with absolute paths which will cause problems with this strategy?

Dec 20, 2009I have 5 Dell servers that I recently upgraded from 11-12 and have noticed an issue that after removing and re-attaching a monitor I am presented with the login screen. After logging in I am just presented with the background image, nothing else. I have logged in using ssh and restarted gdm with no effect. init 3 followed by init 5 still has no effect. Only when I restart with or without monitor attached does it start working as expected again.Has anybody else seen this issue? It was not present in Fedora 11 on these machines.

View 2 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: Attaching Switch To Router Disables Wireless?
Dec 24, 2009I have a wireless router with a 4-port switch built in. The router is a Linksys WRT310N. I have more than 4 devices that I would like to connect through wired connections...so I have an 8 port switch that I connect into one of the 4 ports on the back of the router. Whenever I do this, the wireless functionality stops working! To get wireless back, I just have to unplug the gigabit switch (and unplug/plug in the router) and wireless is back up and running.
It doesn't seem to matter which port I plug the switch into so that isn't the cause of this. Also, I can connect up 4 devices where none of them is a switch (i.e. 4 computers) and wireless still works just fine -- so it doesn't seem to be a problem that there are 4 devices attached. when the switch is connected to my router, the devices behind it work just fine. However, the wireless devices all obtain 169.254.*.* addresses so clearly the clients are failing to obtain an address from the router (the DHCP server).

Fedora :: Home Folder Eating Up All Free Disk Space?

I freed up 6gbs so far and ~ciaranw keeps eating up any free disk space. But when i look to see what in the folder could be doing this, i get nothing back that accounts for the currently 19gbs thereI've been a long time user of forums but never found the need to actually post seeing as my problem was usually covered, this problem has stumped my googling prowess

Hardware :: The Unreasonable Expensive Of Attaching More Hard Drives To Computers
Jan 21, 2010I just bought a Promise FastTrak SX8300 and it completely doesn't work on Linux (contrary to what the support page on promise leads one to believe). As far as I can tell, the last time Promise's drivers compiled on Linux 2.6 was many releases ago (and no one I spoke with at their tech support even knew the Linux basics). So, unless anyone has an idea of how to get it to work - I'm going to look for a different SATA controller.
The SATA Controller on my $400 opteron motherboard died - and it is just out of warranty. Many motherboards can be had fairly cheap now - basically for the same price as a PCI-32/64-bit SATA controller with the same number of ports, itself (and the majority of us have no need for ultra expensive hardware RAID when software on Linux does many things better). There is huge shortage of non-raid SATA controllers, however (and as we know only a subset of any given uncommon hardware is supported by Linux). Unless I have overlooked something, do any of you know of non-raid SATA controllers that are supported by Linux and have a reasonable number of ports (6-12)?
