I'm having some trouble installing Ubuntu 10.04. What I am trying to do is completely wipe all things on my computer and install Ubuntu. I have followed the instructions from Ubuntu's homepage on how to download the ISO, and ran their program to put it onto a portable USB device. Through doing all of this, I receive no error messages. Then it tells me to change the BIOS to boot from USB, so I did that. I've successfully accessed the install menu and filled in all the information requested (i.e. computer name, account name, etc.). I select that I want to delete the current partitions and use only Ubuntu. It starts to install, but at 67%, while copying files, I receive an error.
This error is:
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:
[Errno 5] Input/output error
This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment.
I have tried twice to use Wubi to install Xubuntu on a Windows XP machine. Each time the results were the same:
1) Downloads the required stuff.
2) Does some post-download stuff.
3) Says it needs to reboot to finish the installation.
-------------- here is where it goes bad -------------
4) Reboots back into Windows. There is nothing set to choose Xubuntu (no error messages displayed in prior steps).
Has anyone else encountered this bug?
My linux is Kubuntu 9.04, I encountered Permission denied problem when I wanted to install the openscientist source file (osc_batch_source_16.9) in the following order.
1) cd OpenScientist/16.9/osc_batch/16.9/obuild
2) source setup.sh
3) ./sh/build in this step Permission denied message appeared.
Using Ubuntu 9.10, with no problems for some time. Now when I try to install any package, I will get the following:
Code:
(Reading database ... 45%dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: failed in buffer_read(fd): files list for package 'linux-headers-2.6.31-20': Input/output error E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) A package failed to install. Trying to recover: No matter which package I try to install, it will hang at 45% and give the same error.
it seems like it didn't found openoffice in the repo.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am currently reading a book about Linux commands. There is an example which shows how to print all installed packages. But on my PC is shows northing:
rpm -qa
I know it is supposed to print a long list of all installed packages. I tried to re-install rpm from the synaptic, but still it shows no output.
I can't install or uninstall packages using apt nor synaptic. when i try to install something, dpkg hangs on the unpacking stage. it will also tell me that file lists are missing from packages when i try to uninstall them. or it will tell me it cannot find an archive for various packages. dpkg --configure -a # does not work,

In a moment of temporary insanity I tried to install Backuppc using the synaptic package manager, but started to panic when the installer tried to set up an Apache web server on my PC (which I do not want). At that point I tried to cancel the installation, but got an error message. I then marked the package for complete removal in the package manager, but every time I click the apply I get an error message, "E: backuppc: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 2" and the package, which did not install correctly in the first place, refuses to go. When I ran the update manager today, to install the latest updates, the manager tried to continue with the Apache installation stage of the Backuppc installation. How do I get rid of it?

Managed to get the desktop of the ubuntu 10.04 onto my windows xp workstation. But, I tried to run for example synaptic this way, but this seems not to be possible, think due to root rights needed. How to handle this? Is it possible to run synaptic via remote desktop and install programs?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI wonder if i can install packages that already exist in local directory using synaptic for example: I downloaded a set of programs with there dependencies and stored them in whatever folder, and i'd reinstalled my distro and i need to install just google chrome browser for instance, it's will be very difficult to install it among other packages. it will be very useful if i forced synaptic to install chrome locally instead of downloading and installing them from the internet.

View 1 Replies View Relatedim trying to install compiz (ive tried synaptic, apt-get and software center). However, whenever i then go to system -> preference -> appearance ->effects and select anything other than none, it seems to turn of metacity and give me this "Your window manager does not support the show desktop button, or you are not running a window manager." then i click the "no i don't want to keep these settings" and it goes back. The windows have borders with the buttons again. also after installing ccsm i start it from system -> preferences and nothing happens. it just loads a while then stops.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSomething that really irritates me in Ubuntu is the way these programs are being installed, because it takes disk space I don't have.In windows I can put all the files in the same folder and even choose where to install the stuff, but from synaptic in ubuntu all the game file are being installed in 100 different folders. games are huge and the more you build them up and save (maps, savefiles etc) the more disk space will be used (obviously).When I had windows I used a USB stick to save my current game on to and simply removed it them when I was ready for the next game.Because, usually I don't finish more than 1, 2 or 3 games at the same time.
Now, in linux most of the games are open source and are therefor always out with new versions or maps and other extras. This makes the game folders bigger.Another problem I see with the linux way of installing games is that when I once in awhile take a iso backup using Remastersys, it goes way above the top limit (4gb or something).I mean that we can't install the things wherever we want. I mean the programs are not a big deal because they are small, but games are huge and bigger the more you add to them.
I attempted to install openemr which was taking its sweet time to install it was most of the way through but I had to leave so I left my computer running. Computer when I came back was asleep I started back up and tried installing something from software manager and I got this message from it:

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I have manually removed Canonicals version of coreutils (7.4-2ubuntu2) and installed the latest official version of coreutils (8.9). Synaptic is still registering Canonicals version as being installed. how I can force remove the entry so it shows it as not being installed? I'm guessing there will be a file some where..

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to install OpenOffice 3.2 in Fedora 12? I currently have 3.1.1 installed, done as part of the install process plus yum updates since then. I've heard that 3.2 gives much better docx support. I just loaded a .docx file into my current version of OpenOffice, and it looked a bit munged.

What do I do now?
I've tried to install openoffice, but I can't get it to run. Unlike installing a program in windows, it appears there is a lot more involved in getting a downloaded .tar/.bz2/whatever they are to load and become a program.
I've tried borrowing a book on Linux, but I'm lost with that too as it doesn't tell me how to add/remove programs let alone get them running in the first place.
