holsteinanatoly_: i use unetbootin21:48
holstein!install21:48
ubot93Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate21:48
anatoly_cannot figure this out21:48
anatoly_ok21:49
Unit193Have you used dd before21:49
Unit193?21:49
anatoly_no21:49
anatoly_my son did it for me21:49
holsteinoh yeah.. they can DD now.. all the iso's aFAIK.. i forget about that21:50
anatoly_what's dd?21:50
anatoly_ok, all i could find is to create bbotable flash from mac os, windows or ubuntu21:57
anatoly_neither works for me21:57
anatoly_it's gentoo21:58
anatoly_or i miss something?21:58
holsteinanatoly_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles explains it a bit21:58
holsteinanatoly_: dd is in gentoo..21:58
holsteinanatoly_: dd will work.. or you can use unetbootin from gentoo21:59
anatoly_ok, i'll try22:00
anatoly_holstein, i've got iso file, how i use dd now?22:11
Unit193http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-iso-to-usb-device22:13
anatoly_ok, will try that22:14
anatoly_Unit193, nothing for my case there22:15
holsteinanatoly_: ?22:16
holsteinanatoly_: let us look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-iso-to-usb-device together22:16
holsteinanatoly_: the command sudo dd bs=4M if=[ur .iso] of=/dev/sd[that 1 letter] will be *very* similar22:17
holsteinmaybe you dont have sudo... maybe you do su, then the dd command22:17
holsteinanatoly_: its something you *dont* want to do incorretly.. you *can* break your system22:17
holsteinanatoly_: what would i do? ask in a gentoo channel how to install unetbootin, or read more about dd22:17
holsteinanatoly_: this is http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/UNetbootin22:18
anatoly_ok, probably22:18
anatoly_thanks22:18

Guest61983Hi!23:22
NathanDinizHello!23:23
NathanDinizneed some help getting Ubuntu installed to an external drive.23:24
NathanDinizHello? Anyone here?23:40
Unit193What's the actual question?23:41
NathanDinizI want to get Ubuntu installed to a hard drive that I have, separate from my windows installation23:41
Unit193So you want to dual-boot, not too hard.  Is it Windows 8?23:42
NathanDinizI have a 3 TB external drive, and I want to use half of that.23:42
NathanDinizI do have windows 823:42
Unit193In the installer, choose "advanced" or I think it's called "Something Else"23:42
Unit193!uefi | and read this23:42
ubot93and read this: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI23:42
NathanDinizright.23:42
Unit193Left.23:42
NathanDinizorange23:43
NathanDinizdo I need to have GRUB installed on my main hard drive?23:46
Unit193The installer should do it, but yes.23:47
Unit193You'll need amd64 install, as said in the link above.23:47
NathanDinizI have an intel PC.23:47
Unit193(It's just another name for 64bit.)23:48
NathanDinizoh, ok23:48
Unit193!amd6423:48
ubot93AMD64 and Intel 64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions#AMD64_Processors and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information.23:48
NathanDinizdidn't know.23:48
NathanDinizlinks you've given me have been sent to my Gmail address for viewing later.23:56
NathanDinizI'll be on vacation soon, and I want to make sure I make as few mistakes as possible.23:57
NathanDinizIf I have any more questions, I'll make sure to ask on the forums.23:58
Unit193Alrighty.23:58
NathanDinizor I might ask here.23:59
NathanDinizanyhow.. thanks23:59
