[02:00] <jrib> gluttony: ok
[02:00] <gluttony> can you walk me through it so i dont make bad partition sizes?
[02:01] <jrib> gluttony: sorry about that, I think it was just a typo, but I should have stressed that it was important to check any "sudo rm" commands
[02:01] <jrib> sure, I think your setup was fine, just tell ubuntu you want it installed on hda3 and you want /home seperate on sda1
[02:01] <gluttony> i should have just copypasted it
[02:02] <gluttony> well, what sizes to you suggest i give the parts?
[02:02] <gluttony> so, /usr location, do i need to specify that?
[02:03] <jrib> nah, I would just leave all of / including /usr together and seperate /home
[02:04] <gluttony> i noticed in the install that there is no eastern standard time in the time settings
[02:05] <jrib> hmm maybe new_york?
[02:06] <gluttony> oh, and its not letting me select a mount point
[02:07] <gluttony> do i just type it?
[02:08] <jrib> I'm not sure
[02:08] <jrib> gluttony: maybe someone in #ubuntu is more familiar with the installer
[02:08] <gluttony> kk
[02:12] <gluttony> god its busy

=== dangerousbrian [n=martin@host81-151-151-223.range81-151.btcentralplus.com]  has joined #ubuntu-classroom
[10:13] <linux_stu> anyone know much about configuring a linux parititon with an EFI?
[10:13] <mk1_salami> i know you people probably get fed up with all the Q's
[10:14] <mk1_salami> BUT, how do i take read-only off my two HDD's in the /media folder?
[10:14] <mk1_salami> sudo chown or something?
[10:14] <linux_stu> well it depends on whether the source of the problems is permissions or how you specified that hdd's to be mounted
[10:14] <soundray> linux_stu: Intel Macs have those. There are plenty of installation reports on the web.
[10:15] <linux_stu> ok, that's what i am dealing with
[10:15] <linux_stu> i installed ubuntu to a partition
[10:15] <soundray> dangerousbrian:  run 'gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst' in a terminal window.
[10:15] <mk1_salami> ah right. Well  i've got 2 windows hdd's
[10:15] <mk1_salami> not sure if thehy're NTFS or FAT
[10:15] <mk1_salami> where i store music, films etc. I cant edit them
[10:15] <linux_stu> well not all filesystems have read/write support in linux
=== tgm4883 [n=thomas@c-67-160-174-176.hsd1.or.comcast.net]  has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Ex-Chat"] 
[10:16] <mk1_salami> soundray - done that
[10:16] <mk1_salami> got a gedit window open with the fille open
[10:17] <soundray> mk1_salami: this isn't for you
[10:17] <mk1_salami> oops
[10:17] <dangerousbrian> ' gksudo gedit/boot/grub/menu.lst'
[10:17] <dangerousbrian> this is hard work
[10:18] <mk1_salami> I've tried CHMOD on the files
[10:18] <mk1_salami> but again, read only
[10:18] <linux_stu> mk1_salami, it probably has to do with how you mount it
[10:18] <soundray> dangerousbrian: you need someone more patient than myself to help you. Sorry.
[10:19] <dangerousbrian> think i should stick to windows far easier
[10:19] <mk1_salami> lol. Whats the fun in that
[10:19] <mk1_salami> ;)
[10:19] <dangerousbrian> lol
[10:19] <mk1_salami> i've been using it 3 days
[10:19] <dangerousbrian> m2 1
[10:19] <mk1_salami> getting there. Ive got a mac bluetooth KB set up, internet, everything else i use. NZB downloader etc
[10:20] <mk1_salami> just little things are bugging me
[10:20] <mk1_salami> all i want to do is turn read only off
[10:20] <mk1_salami> :(
[10:20] <dangerousbrian> i just want to be able to run both windows and this
[10:20] <mk1_salami> wel thats easy
[10:20] <mk1_salami> lol
[10:21] <mk1_salami> have you got any partitioning software?
[10:21] <dangerousbrian> ttey are on different drives
[10:21] <mk1_salami> so you need to configure the boot loader or something?
[10:21] <tWs_Mortorojo> get oartition majic and create to partitions one with windows on it and then install ubuntu on the other
[10:21] <tWs_Mortorojo> partition*
[10:22] <dangerousbrian> yeh but i want a choice what i boot from
[10:22] <mk1_salami> google something like  "ubuntu boot manager"
[10:22] <tWs_Mortorojo> you have to log into ur bios and tell it which one to load and it will load it
[10:22] <dangerousbrian> windows is on 1 drive and ubuntu on the other
[10:23] <mk1_salami> forget the bios, thats a pain in the ass to do
[10:23] <tWs_Mortorojo> no its not
[10:23] <mk1_salami> everytime you wanna swap you gotta edit the BIOS?
[10:23] <mk1_salami> woudlnt you be better with a boot menu
[10:23] <tWs_Mortorojo> so it takes like 3 secs
[10:23] <dangerousbrian> ive tried but ubuntu takes over
[10:23] <mk1_salami> are they definetly on different drives
[10:23] <mk1_salami> or partitions
[10:23] <tWs_Mortorojo> yea but this is the quick way without dlin anything
[10:24] <dangerousbrian> definately on different drives
[10:24] <mk1_salami> the right thing to do, and the hardest thing to do are usually always the same thing ;)  --- Name that film
[10:24] <mk1_salami> lol
[10:24] <tWs_Mortorojo> is Ubuntu on the master dick or slave disk
[10:24] <tWs_Mortorojo> disk*
[10:24] <dangerousbrian> master
[10:24] <tWs_Mortorojo> thats y
[10:24] <dangerousbrian> i think
[10:25] <tWs_Mortorojo> liek i said ur bios is loading the Ubuntu disk first
[10:25] <tWs_Mortorojo> one thing u can try is set teh drives to cable select and then go into the bios
[10:25] <mk1_salami> here brian, this might help you: http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/
[10:26] <dangerousbrian> ive chosen for it to boot from both first but ubuntu always loads
[10:26] <mk1_salami> bootloader is the answer brian
[10:26] <mk1_salami> now go read it and stop being lazy ;)
[10:26] <tWs_Mortorojo> yea hes right on this one
[10:27] <mk1_salami> So does anyone know how to remove read only?
[10:27] <mk1_salami> on 2 partitions
[10:27] <mk1_salami> :(
[10:27] <tWs_Mortorojo> its the more simple solluton than what i was about to tell u
[10:27] <dangerousbrian> lol cheers guys am going to have a read
[10:27] <tWs_Mortorojo> whats the file format
[10:28] <dangerousbrian> ntfs
[10:28] <mk1_salami> i actually cant remember
[10:28] <mk1_salami> not sure how i'd find out from the command line
[10:28] <mk1_salami> hmm, let me chq
[10:29] <tWs_Mortorojo> sorry love to continue helping but i have to boot in windows real quick
