raub | Wasn't there an option during server install that allowed you to ssh into the machine? | 19:36 |
---|---|---|
raub | Is there any reason why ubuntu 12.04LTS server will not let me use partitions I created (fdisk and mkfs.ext4) using the ubuntu livecd without formatting them? | 20:41 |
tsimpson | mkfs does format them | 20:42 |
raub | tsimpson: exactly but then when i go to install the server it says it cannot continue because "there are system files in those partitions" or something like that | 20:43 |
tsimpson | there should be a manual partitioning option in the installer, and you should be able to select which partitions to use from there | 20:44 |
tsimpson | I haven't use the server install in a long time, but I have a vague recollection | 20:44 |
raub | lemme try again | 20:44 |
raub | By manual I take you mean using command line? | 20:45 |
raub | Because the one using the interface does not like me at all | 20:45 |
tsimpson | I'm not sure, I just remember begin able to choose partitions during the install | 20:46 |
tsimpson | once, a long time ago | 20:46 |
raub | Yeah | 20:47 |
raub | during the partiton disks menu you can click on "Manual" | 20:47 |
raub | I need something a bit more, well, manual because that one is not working for me | 20:47 |
raub | By that I mean giving me error messages like The attempt to mount a file system with type ext4 in Virtual disk 1, partition #2 (vda2) at / failed. | 20:47 |
tsimpson | hmm, that sounds like it didn't find a filesystem | 20:48 |
raub | A filesystem it supposedly had created (using partman) | 20:49 |
tsimpson | are you sure it created the filesystem (formatted)? | 20:50 |
tsimpson | there's what the partition is marked as, and then there's what's actually on it | 20:50 |
raub | At this point in time I cannot guarantee anything | 20:51 |
raub | I do know that I have no problems creating said partitions and fylesystems using fdisk and mkfs in the livecd | 20:51 |
tsimpson | strange indeed | 20:53 |
kike_ | Hi there | 21:16 |
kike_ | any idea about how to uncompress a lot of zip files (all in the same folder) to a different folder each one? | 21:16 |
RickZilla | kik_ If they're separate zips, you should be able to uncompress them individually to a different location | 21:35 |
geirha | you want a shell one-liner? | 22:21 |
geirha | err, I should turn join/part messages back on | 22:22 |
