jaydubsHello, my system is not booting correctly. I wanted to turn verbose boot on / quite off, so i boot off a live usb, then edited /etc/default/grub/ , chrooted to the drive i was trying to fix, and did update-grub. but it is looking for other things mounted. I could try to mount them - but this doesnt seem like the correct way to do this. Please advise. Thanks!15:54
holsteini would revert to my backed up grub and start over15:55
holsteinjaydubs: you dont need to chroot in from a live CD to show grub..15:55
jaydubshow can i debug the boot process? I need to turn quite off somehow. How can I do this if it is not from a live CD? And how do you commit changes to grub without 'update-grub' (which without chroot would not be on the right system)15:57
koegsjaydubs: you could try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair16:10

kgba little help, pls; which skype to use, this one? http://www.howopensource.com/2012/10/to-install-skype-4-0-0-8-in-ubuntu-12-10-12-04-using-ppa/16:27
darmangyes16:30
kgbyou think that repo is ok?? is it the *official* one?16:30
darmangyou could always download skype for linux from the main website16:32
darmangI am in Africa so my Internet is a bit limited at the moment16:32
kgbright, but their version seems old and other places are updated/not updated; for some reason i got confused, just thought i'd ask16:32
koegskgb: this will install skype from the official partner repo, so thats ok16:33
kgbkoegs: yea sounds good, tnx! :)16:33
kgb*guys16:33
koegskgb: you will get 4.1.0.20 currently16:33
kgbkk16:35
kgb.. even from the repo, or from the site, there isn't for Quantal; skype 4.1.0.20.0-0ubuntu0.12.04.2 seems to be for 12.04 only (and no amd64)16:52
kgbah well16:52
len-1304kgb the 32bit version should run fine on a 64 bit machine.16:53
kgblen-1304: tnx, yeah.. it's just a bit of stress, since they removed that cool-old version 2 for an *updated* one... which is no longer updated :(16:55
koegskgb: after using the line from your link, you just need to use "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install skype"16:55
kgbthey should've left the old one.. and just put the new one in a repo, or something :f16:55
kgbkoegs: got it, ty16:55
kgbnope, the partner repo just destroyed the entire xubuntu 12.10 system xD activated and installed 100s of things and it's not working properly (fresh install); just a heads-up17:31
kgbbb gonna take me hours to clean up17:32
koegskgb: i am sorry, but that is not normal :)18:29
koegsactivating the partner repository normally does not install anything "itself"18:29
