stephenthemartyr | yea,i mean i put un lm-sensor | 03:09 |
stephenthemartyr | and some temp reading thin is on the top of screen | 03:10 |
holstein | that is a waste of time | 03:10 |
holstein | you need to test that hard drive | 03:10 |
stephenthemartyr | how | 03:10 |
holstein | you need to make sure the hardware is still good | 03:10 |
stephenthemartyr | ok | 03:10 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: however you feel comfortable | 03:10 |
holstein | otherwise... you'll just fsck and fix and waste time on a hard drive thats dying | 03:11 |
stephenthemartyr | what r my options? | 03:11 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: after you test, then you'll know your options | 03:11 |
holstein | you'll know if you need to go on with repairing the file system | 03:11 |
stephenthemartyr | all my memory on the ubuntu studio dise of partition is almost gonr | 03:11 |
holstein | memory? | 03:12 |
holstein | you mean hard drive space? | 03:12 |
stephenthemartyr | and what are my options as fcar as testing | 03:12 |
stephenthemartyr | yea | 03:12 |
stephenthemartyr | space | 03:12 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: i use this..http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ | 03:12 |
holstein | you can use any live CD pretty much though | 03:12 |
holstein | theres a disk utility in the ubuntu live CD's | 03:12 |
holstein | you'll want to run the long smart test | 03:12 |
stephenthemartyr | ok so it uses a cd or dvd? | 03:13 |
holstein | well, the live disc is on whatever you put it on | 03:13 |
holstein | UBCD is CD sized | 03:14 |
holstein | you can burn CD images to DVD's | 03:14 |
holstein | but not the other way around | 03:14 |
stephenthemartyr | ok so i download the boot cd aND put it on cd and then boot? | 03:14 |
stephenthemartyr | i am super confused,and i dont understand how i used 28 GB so far | 03:16 |
stephenthemartyr | so i download and run which out of all those | 03:19 |
stephenthemartyr | <holstein>im confused | 03:26 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: if that hard drive is failing in a serious way | 03:29 |
holstein | it will be odd | 03:29 |
holstein | it could be reporting funky stuff | 03:29 |
stephenthemartyr | what do u mean | 03:29 |
holstein | again... you'll need to test the drive first | 03:30 |
holstein | you dont want to waste time wondering whats going on with data | 03:30 |
holstein | data that you *should* have backed up | 03:31 |
stephenthemartyr | oka and im i dont understand where do i download the ubbc? | 03:31 |
holstein | worst case, you get a better hard drive than what you have right not for like 40 bucks | 03:31 |
stephenthemartyr | i did | 03:31 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: you dont *need* UBCD | 03:31 |
holstein | use what you have | 03:31 |
holstein | you have a live CD | 03:32 |
holstein | just boot that | 03:32 |
holstein | use the disk utility | 03:32 |
stephenthemartyr | i have a 11.04 dvd is that what u mean | 03:32 |
stephenthemartyr | and how will that help me | 03:32 |
stephenthemartyr | im sorry im annoying but pleaser spell it out for me | 03:32 |
stephenthemartyr | pleaSE | 03:33 |
stephenthemartyr | what does partition 5 of partition 3 is busy mean | 03:34 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: you cant test the drive while you are running it | 03:40 |
holstein | you shouldnt | 03:40 |
holstein | boot a live CD on there | 03:40 |
stephenthemartyr | ok | 03:40 |
holstein | go to the menu | 03:40 |
holstein | find disk utility | 03:40 |
holstein | theres a test to run there | 03:41 |
stephenthemartyr | and when i boot from the cd it seems like it is updating everything | 03:41 |
holstein | a short test and a long test | 03:41 |
stephenthemartyr | yes i understand thaT part,it is the booting part i dont get | 03:41 |
stephenthemartyr | its funny cause i got an interface,now this happened | 03:42 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: you put the live CD in, and boot it | 03:44 |
holstein | just like you did when you wanted to install it | 03:45 |
holstein | you just dont install | 03:45 |
holstein | you run it live | 03:45 |
holstein | then, you can test that drive | 03:45 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: step one for you is test the drive | 03:45 |
holstein | extended self test | 03:45 |
holstein | it'll take an hour or so | 03:45 |
holstein | you need not do anything else til that | 03:45 |
holstein | anything else you do could potentially be a waste of time | 03:46 |
stephenthemartyr | yes i understand that,now i need help getting there!! | 03:46 |
stephenthemartyr | i know disk utility | 03:46 |
stephenthemartyr | and the test | 03:46 |
stephenthemartyr | so i should boot with 11.04? | 03:47 |
stephenthemartyr | o0k so there is an option to "run it ;live"?>? | 03:47 |
stephenthemartyr | <holstein>i tried but there was no option to run live,only install,check memory and a few others | 04:05 |
holstein | stephenthemartyr: you can get a live CD | 04:15 |
holstein | if you dont have one | 04:15 |
holstein | i gotta run... | 04:15 |
holstein | you'll figure it out :) | 04:15 |
