SDFGHKLJFDFHG | hi all | 23:15 |
---|---|---|
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | i need help please can somomne hel me out im new to unbuntu | 23:15 |
jea | Good morning | 23:17 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | good nite | 23:17 |
jea | I think you will find the best help in #ubuntu, which is a general help channel | 23:17 |
jea | this is the Australian loco channel for Ubuntu | 23:17 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | lol | 23:17 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | can i get my hel p me too | 23:17 |
jea | you can ask | 23:18 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | after i doenload loaded ubuntu of the internet do i just click and drag the file in the the USB drive and restart and boot from USB DRIVE | 23:19 |
jea | no, not quite | 23:20 |
jea | you need to make a bootable USB using the iso you downloaded | 23:21 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | i think my computer already can USB boot | 23:21 |
jea | i normally use this from windows - http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 23:21 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | automacily | 23:21 |
jea | your computer might be able to boot from USB, but the USB has to be created in a special way for it to work | 23:22 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | i use a dell and dell dont boot auto | 23:22 |
jea | so you need to use that program I linked to to put the ISO file onto the USB drive | 23:22 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | i think dell can boot auto | 23:22 |
jea | if you just drag the file you downloaded to the USB drive, it will not work | 23:22 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | it says it can boot from usb but i guessing i will still ned the software fromt hat site then | 23:23 |
jea | yes | 23:23 |
SDFGHKLJFDFHG | ok thank you | 23:24 |
jea | you can also read this - http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 23:24 |
jea | which gives you another option | 23:24 |
gggs | woa, I've been using apt-get for years and only just discovered the awesomeness of aptitude | 23:44 |
jea | aptitude can be very useful | 23:46 |
gggs | so much nicer than apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade/install, and even implements those commands for compatibility anyway | 23:51 |
