| shinda_ | hi all | 00:43 |
|---|---|---|
| shinda_ | i have a question about creating a cd / dvd for backup and restore of a custom ubuntu instance. Can anyone help? | 00:44 |
| coalwater | u want to backup the whole thing ? or what | 00:45 |
| shinda_ | Yes. | 00:45 |
| shinda_ | I started with Remastersys but it doesn't want to work. | 00:45 |
| shinda_ | The cd won't boot the system. | 00:46 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | shinda_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem The tool in that list are handy | 00:46 |
| coalwater | o so u want to create a custom live cd ? | 00:46 |
| shinda_ | i'll check it out. thanks | 00:46 |
| shinda_ | I was under the impression that since the installation of Ubuntu was itself custom, a custom boot cd was needed. | 00:48 |
| shinda_ | i created the cd but the cd isn't live. | 00:48 |
| shinda_ | The cd won't boot the system. | 00:49 |
| coalwater | sorry im still trying to understand, u already have ubuntu installed, or u just are trying to install it ? | 00:49 |

| shinda_ | ubuntu is installed. | 00:50 |
| shinda_ | with applications removed. | 00:50 |
| shinda_ | I want to create a custom live cd for the installation. | 00:51 |
| shinda_ | I was using Remastersys but there seems to be a bug issue that keeps the cd from booting the machine. | 00:52 |
| coalwater | ok check this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 00:52 |
| shinda_ | coalwater... this is where I began the search for support for creating a custom live cd | 00:54 |
| coalwater | hm i dont know if i created an image of a live usb if it would work or not | 00:55 |
| shinda_ | That's the problem I'm having. An image has been created but I can't boot from it. | 00:56 |
| shinda_ | So now, I'm trying to figure out what the next course of action should be. | 00:57 |
| shinda_ | I have to leave for a bit. I'll return in a few hours to revisit this matter. Thanks for your support so far! | 00:57 |
| coalwater | i hope it works at some point | 00:58 |
| bobweaver | Hello there everybody any web designers in the house ? the reason I ask is for a salary question. I got offered a job and I think that they are trying to low ball me so I thought that I would ask what a junior web dev gets per hour ? | 02:16 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | bobweaver, #ubuntu-beginners-team for offtopic? | 02:16 |
| bobweaver | np | 02:18 |
| bobweaver | sorry | 02:19 |
| bobweaver | oh I should ask in the ubuntu loco room | 02:19 |
| seidos | bobweaver: it's probably a bell curve i'd guess. plus you're competing with folks all over the world. i heard a comp sci grad from india makes like $18/hr to start. good luck | 02:26 |

| shinda_ | Any info out there about how best to backup and restore an Ubuntu installation using a custom built live cd? | 05:16 |
| shinda_ | I've attempted to build a live cd using Remastersys but it does not work. | 05:17 |
| holstein | yeah, its old... i heard it might be broken as of 11.04 | 05:21 |
| holstein | shinda_: you want to have a LIVE cd made of your running OS? | 05:22 |
| holstein | you can backup with some backup tool | 05:22 |
| holstein | back in time?... clonezilla | 05:22 |
| shinda_ | clonezilla... | 05:22 |
| holstein | thers UCK... ubuntu customization kit | 05:23 |
| holstein | that was failing for me yesterday | 05:23 |
| holstein | but, i assumed it was my own fault | 05:23 |
| shinda_ | holstein, I think you might be right about Remastersys being broken. The version of Ubuntu that I'm running is 10.04 | 05:23 |
| holstein | shinda_: i got UCK to work in 10.04 though | 05:23 |
| shinda_ | Ubuntu UCK. I'll check it out. | 05:24 |
| holstein | shinda_: its not great... but it did work | 05:24 |
| shinda_ | thanks holstein | 05:25 |

| fulcrum | gg goes to the top of the file | 16:02 |
| fulcrum | G goes to the bottom | 16:02 |
| fulcrum | thats with vim not vi though | 16:03 |
| fulcrum | with vi you would do 1G to go to the top | 16:03 |
