| scrads | hi guys im having trouble installing off of a live cd. first time was really slow, next time it nearly finished but crashed. did the same again but sooner, on retry | 15:45 |
|---|---|---|
| superm1 | scrads, do you have a crash report or logs or anything? | 16:00 |
| scrads | the only thing i visibly get is "installation has crashed" i have read that you need root access to install, does the live cd give this automaticly. | 16:04 |
| scrads | sorry if im asking obvioys questions, im complely new to linux | 16:04 |
| superm1 | scrads, the live cd is supposed to be pretty straightforward, no special access or anything | 16:11 |
| superm1 | so to debug, do this: once you get to the first page of installation where it gives you an option to try or install, choose "try" | 16:12 |
| superm1 | then you can invoke the installer from the desktop that comes up | 16:12 |
| superm1 | when it crashes, you just need to right click the desktop and choose "Terminal" and type "ubuntu-bug ubiquity" (no quotes) and it will file a bug for you | 16:12 |
| scrads | cheers i'll give that a go later then. | 16:14 |
| scrads | as an aside. ive loaded the cd image on my removeable hdd. can i run the install off that, using livecd to boot into desktop. I can see the files but dont know which/how to run it | 16:16 |
