| persia | Stralytic, You might want to send that to the mailing list, just because not everyone reads scrollback, and it's quiet around here now. | 05:28 |
| Stralytic | persia, yep, thanks. i was planning on doing that once i had some more material, eg, mockups | 05:29 |
| persia | That makes sense. I'm a fan of discussion early and often, but many find pictures easier than reading the thousand words :) | 05:31 |
| Splex | I have tried imaging my usb drive with the umpc i386 img.. it will not boot | 05:47 |
| Splex | other images boot from the device without troubles | 05:47 |
| Splex | any idea how to make the image boot correctly? | 05:48 |
| Splex | if i view /dev/sda with fdisk, it returns a lot of errors about the partition tables being invalid | 05:49 |
| Splex | /dev/sda does auto-mount and i can see all the files on it from the image | 05:50 |
| persia | When you dd an image onto a USB drive, you'll generally break the partition table. | 06:14 |
| persia | This shouldn't be an image. | 06:14 |
| persia | s/image/problem/ | 06:14 |
| persia | That /dev/sda automounts (note that it's not /dev/sda1: it's not a partition) indicates the disk is OK. | 06:14 |
| persia | What error do you get trying to boot? | 06:14 |
| Splex | it simply skips past the usb device and boots from the drive | 06:25 |
| Splex | i see the usb drive flashing | 06:25 |
| Splex | so /dev/sdb is a filesystem in itself, thats what i thought | 06:27 |
| Splex | i have also tried formatting the device with vfat and using unetbootin to add the image | 06:27 |
| Splex | that failed | 06:27 |
| Splex | sudo dd if=./ubuntu-8.10-umpc-i386.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 | 06:31 |
| Splex | thats the command i was using to transfer the image | 06:31 |
| rZr | do u own this device http://www.stefanoforenza.com/chinese-mid-deploying-ubuntu-by-default/ ? | 12:37 |
