Fedora :: Live Disk Creation & Disk Image Backup

Aug 6, 2009

I need little help on live disk creation and disk image backup.

Can I create live disk using my hard drive installation? If yes then, can I restore the fedora from the live disk to the hard drive. I mean to say that from that live disk can I install fedora again in my hard drive.

Second question is, if I create the disk image of my hard drive( including ntfs & FAT32 partition) , can I restore it in a blank drive. If so , then can os will be restored also?

Ubuntu :: Boot Disk For Drive Image?

Dec 14, 2010

I have a Windows XP pc that has become corrupted and I have a image of the drive that I want to restore, however Drive Image won't allow me to restore to the main system drive. I was wondering if it is possible to use the Live CD and then do the restore through Ubuntu. I know it's probably a long shot but thought I'd ask anyway.

Ubuntu Installation :: Boot Disk Image For Install On AMD RAID PC?

Sep 3, 2010

I tried installing Ubuntu 10.04 WS on my PC but it did not see any disks to install on. I believe this is because my drives are all configured as RAID. My mobo is an Asus M3A78-EMH HDMI AM2+ socket with an Athlon 2X 5000+ CPU. The chipset is AMD 780G. I have the BIOS configured for RAID drives and I already run Win XP x32 and Win 7 x64 on it. My boot drive is configured as 'RAID READY' and I have 2 RAID 1 disks consisting of pairs of SATA drives.

From what I have researched it seems that with some tuning it should be possible to install Ubuntu 10.04 but I have little Linux experience and don't want to mess up my existing drives. I have installed Linux before a few times and run it but never with RAID. Is anyone aware of an existing disk image that I will be able to install from on my system or would it be possible for someone to create one for me to use?

Software :: Boot From A Image Transferred To Internal Hard Disk?

Jul 20, 2010

I have a dvd I want to boot from, on a certain laptop. The problem is this:

DVD will NOT boot in laptop [1] with this DVD.
DVD WILL boot ok in laptop [2] with this DVD.
- Conclusion, DVD is ok.
* laptop [1] and laptop [2] boots other media in the cd/dvd drive ok.

I can see all files on DVD in both laptops. As a workaround I copied the DVD image off the DVD drive to internal hard disk with following command and the result was as follows:

- result of dd command
# dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/sda4
6298816+0 records in
6298816+0 records out
3224993792 bytes (3.2 GB) copied, 473.18 s, 6.8 MB/s

How do I make that partition [/dev/sda4] bootable ?

Red Hat / Fedora :: Expand A Xen Disk Image?

Apr 15, 2011

I need to expand a 15GB xen disk ".img" to 50GB, it's got centos as the guest O/S.

I've been googling and there are alot of results but I'm still having trouble.

I don't remember if I used the default LVM partition scheme or if I did a FS. In fdisk it says linux partition but that's it.

I did the dd and cat method but fsck is complaining like usual.

I dd a file called tempfile and the append it using cat tempfile >> my.img then did resize2fs -f but it error out with "Bad Magic number on super block."

Fedora :: Mount Virtual Disk Image?

Sep 28, 2010

Is it possible to mount a virtual disk image like qcow2 as a rw filesystem? I would assume guestfs could do it, but I couldn't figure it out from the man page. Basically I want to be able to read and write to the contents of a Windows virtual machine, just like I mounted a physical disk.

General :: Mount - How To Use Qcow2 Disk Image

Dec 27, 2010

I have a large qcow2 formatted disk image, which I use as storage. Often I need to move data to and from this disk image. I mount the disk using the qemu-nbd tool as follows:

modprobe nbd max_part=63
qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 /host/disk100G.img
mount /dev/nbd0p1 /home/rup/disk

But disk access fails every now and then in the midst of some I/O operation with an "Input/output error". At that point I have to manually unmount the disk and re-mount it so that I can run the program again:qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0umount joborkhaki/What could be the reason for this? Is there a better tool that I can use to maintain a qcow2 disk image?

General :: Creating Image Of Hard Disk

Jul 28, 2010

I am new to the Linux world and I am not sure if what I am trying to do is achievable or not. I am trying to make an image of my existing drives running Linux on a USB and I want to use the same image off the USB to clone more bootable hard drives. Something like what Ghost does in windows. The problem is using 'dd' the image is too big ( I have 1tb drives ) and then I am not sure how to convert these images back on to new drives so that they boot in the OS as well. i am not sure if there is a utility that would let you do that?

Fedora :: Yum Search / Info - Database Disk Image Malformed

Aug 25, 2010

Any time I've tried to run 'yum search' or 'yum info' I end up getting a error "database disk image is malformed"

Code:
$ yum info postgresql
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Error: database disk image is malformed
I am, however, able to update and install software without this error occuring.

I've tried the 'yum clean all", "yum clean metadata", "yum clean datacache", and rebuilding with "yum makecache", but still this problem crops up. As I understand it, the error message comes from something possibly not having been updated properly in one of the sqlite databases that yum stores information in. I probably could fix it if I knew which sqlite db that 'yum search' and 'yum info' hit.

General :: Use Hard Disk Image Like A Regular Hard Disk?

Apr 6, 2010

If you have a hard disk image (including partition table, multiple partitions,...), is it possible to let Linux treat it as a regular hard disk?

By "regular hard disk" I mean I would like to have the image show up as, for instance, /dev/hdx and its partitions as /dev/hdx1,...

(I know I can mount one of the partitions in the image using "mount -o loop,offset=x ..." but I don't really like this option.)

General :: Mounting A Multi-partition Disk Image?

Nov 16, 2010

I downloaded an raw SD card image that has two partitions. It caused some file system errors when I tried to dd it directly into an SD card. I am not sure if the card is defective or the image. Is there a way to examine this image without writing it to a physical card? Like trying to mount the partitions separately or checking the tables?

General :: Can't Copy The Disk Image Over To Ext3 Partition

Jan 6, 2011

I recently installed Linux to run a few Linux based tools on a disk images I have, and I can't seem to copy the disk image over to my ext3 partition.

The particular distibution I'm using is BackTrack 4 r2, which is Ubuntu based. I can't seem to find specifically which version of Ubuntu is being used. The disk image is 108GB. It is currently located on a NTFS partition on a SATA hard drive connected directly to the computer. The ext3 partition is located on a second SATA hard drive connected to the same computer. It has 200GB total. I do not remember exactly how much free space it had but "df -h" showed a lot more than 108GB. The computer has 4GB of RAM and I gave it 8GB of swap space.

At this point it has been running for more than 12 hours. This is far longer than I would expect it to take had I been copying the file under Windows. How ever I do not have much experience with Linux, so if it's supose to take this long please let me know. I am planning on letting it run until I wake up tomorrow.

"cp -v" hasn't been very verbose at all. The only sign I have that indicates the computer is still trying to do something is the HDD light on my chasis that has stayed lit this whole time.

General :: Disk Image Starting At Specific Inode?

Mar 9, 2010

I deleted some files on the command line and would like to learn if it's possible to recover them. It's not a terrible thing if they are gone, but I want to see what I can do. The server is configured as a hardware RAID5+1 (ext3, Debian Stable) and I *really* don't want to take a dd of the entire disk.

ls -id gets me the inode value of the directory(155655)

I'd like to create a disk image starting at that specific inode. Then there is the issue of picking an outer boundary of the disk image. I'm hoping there's a dd/ext3 genius out there to advise.

General :: Share One Disk Image To Some Target Points?

Jan 12, 2010

I try to mount one disk image to two points.

sudo mount -o loop,user,uid=dm /home/dm/mmm/test_drive1.img /home/dm/mmm/fs
sudo mount -o loop,user,uid=dm /home/dm/mmm/test_drive1.img /home/dm/mmm/fs2

Thats done

But when i create,copy or change anything on one mount point (../fs) its not updates on second mount point (../fs2).

Does anyone know way to 'share' one disk image (.img) to some mount points?
