woli | hi | 05:16 |
woli | ok | 05:16 |
Paddy_EIRE | Okay so have you seen the wiki page yet | 05:16 |
woli | I have a kde uetbootin and the usb-creator that savvas got for me. | 05:16 |
Paddy_EIRE | ok | 05:16 |
woli | i want to know if I just need to use either program to set up completely my usb, or if ill have to do other stuff besides that | 05:16 |
woli | which software do you recommend me to use? | 05:17 |
Paddy_EIRE | https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html | 05:17 |
Paddy_EIRE | and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 05:17 |
Paddy_EIRE | You will need to reference those | 05:17 |
woli | So i will need to do things besides running the usb creation applications? | 05:18 |
Paddy_EIRE | Any particular questions about what step you are at.. then just give me a buzz | 05:18 |
woli | ok | 05:18 |
Paddy_EIRE | woli, are you running from ubuntu at the moment? | 05:19 |
Paddy_EIRE | or running ubuntu rather | 05:19 |
Paddy_EIRE | :P | 05:19 |
persia | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick is a little out-of-date. usb-creator should just work, assuming you have an ISO. | 05:19 |
Paddy_EIRE | yes | 05:19 |
Paddy_EIRE | usb-creator is all you need | 05:19 |
woli | I am | 05:20 |
woli | ah ok perfect | 05:20 |
woli | I guess I need no more guidance. | 05:20 |
Paddy_EIRE | just fire questions as you go | 05:20 |
Paddy_EIRE | persia, that page needs updating | 05:21 |
Paddy_EIRE | If I get the time I will do it | 05:21 |
persia | Paddy_EIRE, Agreed. You see more of the questions from users than I: perhaps you'd like to take a stab at it? | 05:21 |
Paddy_EIRE | yeah no probs | 05:22 |
woli | Damn, Paddy left | 05:51 |
woli | persia, do you know about this? | 05:51 |
woli | I just want to know if which option should I choose... | 05:51 |
woli | hold on. | 05:51 |
woli | When starting up from this disk, documents and settings will be: a) Stored in reserved extra space; b) Discarded on shutdown, unless you save them elsewhere | 05:52 |
persia | Are you planning to install, or use this as a live system on a stick on various machines? | 05:53 |
woli | Sorry, I misunderstood what I read before. Now I noticed what it really meant. | 05:53 |
woli | I'm using the discard on shutdown, unless saved elsewhere because I'm just going to use it to install ubuntu on a lappy once. | 05:54 |
persia | If you're just planning an install, then that's the right choice. | 05:55 |
woli | Thanks. Sorry for the disturbance. | 05:55 |
persia | If you have a suggestion on how to rephrase that may not lead to this confusion, please file a bug. | 05:56 |
woli | persia, also, is it unsafe to rename a boot usb? | 06:04 |
persia | How do you mean "rename"? | 06:04 |
woli | Like in change the label of the drive. | 06:04 |
persia | Shouldn't matter. | 06:05 |
woli | Ok. | 06:06 |
woli | Thanks persia, my live usb is now created. I just hope it works =D. | 06:13 |
