[04:44] morning superfly and other early birds [04:45] Maaz, coffee on [04:45] * Maaz puts the kettle on [04:49] Coffee's ready for Kilos! [04:54] Maaz, ty [04:54] You're Welcome I'm sure [04:55] Maaz, rusks please [04:55] There is a packet of Ouma's on the top shelf [05:12] morning Kilos [05:25] sorry to worry you superfly . i wanna copy all the packages on the 20g drive to my external so i can install on the 80g without having to download. is this command correct or must there be more / and a * [05:25] cp /var/cache/apt/archives /media/storage/Packs [05:26] that'll copy the archives directory itself to /media/storage/Packs [05:26] you might want to rather do this [05:26] cp /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb /media/storage/Packs/ [05:27] this is on 9.04 and i dunno if they will work on maverick as well [05:27] no they won't [05:27] eish [05:27] packages are tied to a version of Ubuntu [05:27] so i have to go the download route [05:28] hi corrie206 [05:28] yup [05:28] ty superfly [05:30] see i would like to remove 9.04 here and install maverick on this 20g for my sis [05:30] but cant do the whole update download thing again [05:30] am looking at remastersys as well [05:32] ok i go back to 80g. bbl [06:19] moonin [06:19] hi sakhi [06:19] hehe [06:20] i am trying to register at remastersys but the security is weird [06:20] one of the questions is how many legs does a $!x legged horse have [06:28] Kilos: what are you trying to do? (i.e. why are you registering at remastersys) [06:29] i want to ask their forums if and how to use it to a flash disk or externalm because a cd only takes 700m and mine 789m superfly [06:29] and no dvd writer [06:29] no dvd anything [06:29] Maaz: Google for linux bootable flash disk [06:30] superfly: "Boot and run Linux from a USB flash memory stick | USB Pen Drive Linux" http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ :: "Comparing Linux USB flash disk distros | Linux.com" http://www.linux.com/distrocentral/distronews/8221-comparing-linux-usb-flash-disk-distros :: "Imran Nazar: Booting Linux from Flash" http://imrannazar.com/Booting-Linux-from-Flash :: "Create a Bootable Ubuntu USB Flash Drive the Easy Way - How-To Geek" http://www.howtogeek.c [06:30] Maaz: Google for linux convert ISO to bootable flash disk [06:30] superfly: "Boot ISO image from hard disk?" http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/boot-iso-image-from-hard-disk-294744/ :: "How to Convert a Linux Boot ISO to USB | eHow.com" http://www.ehow.com/how_5062890_convert-linux-boot-iso-usb.html :: "UNetbootin - Homepage and Downloads" http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ :: "Install any Linux distro directly from hard disk without burning ..." http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/i [06:30] remastersys is supposed to make a cd of your exact system superfly so that means no downloads [06:31] Kilos: yes, but does it make an ISO? [06:31] yes it makes an iso too [06:31] right, then my last search is most definitely relevant [06:31] thats what filled my 6g drive so i couldnt go on [06:32] oh [06:32] ty will look [15:41] Does ubuntu alert you when it is end of life? [15:42] is there a popup going this distro is NO longer supported please upgrade like now. [15:50] drubin: not as far as I know [15:54] that is silly [15:54] just had a guy ask questions about intepid [15:54] he didn't know it was end of life ;/ [15:55] but I guess even if there was a notification they wouldn't upgrade. If they didn't upgrade the security fixes or any thing [16:17] drubin: update manager does warn in newer versions, but I don't think it was in intrepid yet [16:43] highvoltage: Thanks :) [17:04] "Scheduled Delivery: 10-January-2011 " for "Ubuntu Banner" [17:05] I was >< that close to marking that email as spam :) [17:05] Maaz: tell maiatoday "Scheduled Delivery: 10-January-2011 " for "Ubuntu Banner" [17:05] drubin: Okay, I'll tell maiatoday on freenode [17:23] hi walterl happy new year [17:50] Kilos: thanks. same to you :) [17:50] ty [19:29] Maaz: coffee on [19:29] * Maaz puts the kettle on [19:33] Coffee's ready for inetpro!
