It's the weekend. [04:48] i had a few ? and no anwsers [04:48] shawarma : >_> [04:48] taomaster: youve seen the light ;) [04:48] ok so try on Monday [04:49] yes i have [04:49] lalcaraz: Try starting in recovery mode and keep a close eye on the console to see what the last thing it says is. [04:49] anyone knows about an issue on ubuntu server that restarts the pc after grub is showed?? [04:49] ookok [04:49] i've been usinf ubuntu 7 4 about a month and i like it [04:49] let me see ... [04:49] "Shawarma, Ubuntu support, meeting times: 12:00 to 15:00 on monday to friday, and saturday 11:00 to 13:00 [04:49] " [04:49] :P [04:49] ok thanx i'll try then [04:50] My core hours are 8 AM to 5 PM CEST. I'm around then. [04:50] cool that's all i needed to know [04:50] the only thing I see is Starting up ... and then boom! reboots [04:50] lalcaraz: The install went fine? [04:51] taomaster: did you have any problems with ubuntu server, or haven't you tried yet? [04:51] yep, was fine no eroor . [04:51] lalcaraz: Ok. Hardware? [04:51] i have not tried it yet [04:51] via c3 embedded processor, 256mb ram [04:51] i'm uploading as we speak [04:52] taomaster: uploading? :S [04:52] well sorry d/l [04:52] :P [04:52] lalcaraz: That's probably your problem. You need to boot up the server cd, choose rescue mode, and install the -i386 kernel, I think. [04:52] i was too lazy to download ubuntu-server, so i installed desktop, and uninstalled gnome :P [04:52] ok, let me try it. thanks [04:52] running xfce if i need vnc [04:53] lalcaraz: The server kernel might be trying to use some stuff that the via cpu's don't support. They're not entirely i686 compatible, afair. [04:54] KennyTheGeek is there a book or something outt here so i can study this distro? [04:54] ok let me try it right now ... thanks :D [04:54] lalcaraz: np [04:54] taomaster: :S not that i know of, why? [04:54] i was goin to go with Novell until they paired with MS [04:54] hehe [04:55] i like to read about it b 4 i use it [04:55] used SuSE 10 once, didn't like it [04:55] this is my MB, if you know any issue related http://www.pcchips.com.tw/PCCWeb/Products/ProductsDetail.aspx?DetailID=348&MenuID=0&LanID=2 [04:55] well, ubuntuforums.org, ubuntu.com :P thats where you can read about them [04:56] i had sled 10, it was nice until i tired ubuntu [04:58] i saw at distrowatch.com there's a course 4 Ubuntu server, have u ever seen it? [04:58] no [04:58] it's like 349.00 4 the course [04:58] 6 weeks [04:58] :O!!! [04:58] expensive ****... [04:58] well how much diff is it then server 03 [04:58] i think i can figure it out [04:58] server isn't that hard [04:59] question: how may I install i386 kernel?? :S [04:59] i have 100 workstation and 4 servers at my place of business [04:59] lalcaraz: You chose the rescue option, when you started? [04:59] yep [04:59] I'm on a menu just like the installer [05:00] taomaster: i got 5 pc's (1 dekstop) and 1 server at my "business" :P [05:00] lalcaraz: Alright. I don't remember options.. Could you remind me?

[05:01] does this ubuntu have remote services? [05:01] lalcaraz: Ah. just wait then. [05:01] remote services? of which sort? VNC, SSH, stuff like that? [05:02] vpn [05:02] a vpn server should be in the repositories, ill check [05:02] taomaster: openvpn is in the archive. [05:02] ok [05:03] sharma: it's asking me about that FS I want to rescue, [05:03] shows hda1, hda2 or hda5 [05:03] lalcaraz: Yes... [05:03] I believe it's hda1 [05:03] as far as i can remember ... that's my root [05:03] lalcaraz: You can switch to vt2 and check. [05:03] lalcaraz: Alt-f2, press return, do [05:03] fdisk -l /dev/hda [05:03] true, fdisk shows it up [05:03] ya right now i do all my network admin-ing from my home and the offices are in another town [05:04] so remote connections is a must [05:04] so then another menu appears: execute shell at hda1, execute shell from installer enviroment, reinstall grub boot loader, choose different root FS, reboot the system === ||arifaX [n=||arifaX@p54B5C3BC.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-server [05:06] lalcaraz: The first one.

[05:10] lalcaraz: When it's done installing, exit from the shell, reboot and when grub shows up, make sure you chose the right kernel. [05:10] lalcaraz: And presto! [05:11] ok, just need to upgrade the aptitute package list [05:11] hahahaha that's why i Love Ubuntu :P many thanks [05:12] question: do I need to upgrade the grub menu? or it's just updated automatically? [05:14] lalcaraz: Automagically. [05:14] lalcaraz: If you're bored, you can run update-grub yourself. [05:14] lalcaraz: But installing a kernel triggers it, too. [05:18] :o "sophie" is working. I can see the services getting up [05:19] After rebooting? Great stuff. [05:29] many thanks, it's working now.

[09:10] nothing [09:10] yes, once upstart is fully implemented, this will go away [09:10] maybe an echo is missing somewhere [09:10] no, 'login text' aka getty is started before some services [09:11] sorry I'm new.. what is upstart?
