| x5ives | I'm following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto to burn a lubuntu desktop image to a CD-R. I've tried it once but when I went to check the disc for defects it it just hung on the lubuntu loading splash screen. I'm attempting to try again with a new disc at the slowest speed possible. There are 9 burning speed options, the first one is 'Maximum speed', the other 8 are all '423.4x (CD)', from what I've been | 01:03 |

| holstein | x5ives: where did you get the lubuntu iso? the 13.04 iso? | 01:56 |
| holstein | x5ives: did you confirm the md5? | 01:56 |
| holstein | !md5 | 01:56 |
| ubot93 | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 01:56 |
| holstein | x5ives: i typically verify discs by trying them. and test them if there is an issue | 01:57 |
| holstein | x5ives: i would try just booting the lubuntu dixk | 01:57 |
| holstein | disk* | 01:57 |
| holstein | x5ives: that "verify" step takes a while | 01:58 |
| x5ives | I have checked the md5 of the iso, it is 13.04 and I got it from Best Buy. | 02:01 |
| x5ives | Just kidding, I got it here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu | 02:01 |
| x5ives | The md5 matched. | 02:01 |
| holstein | x5ives: if the sum is good, then just try booting the live desktop | 02:01 |
| x5ives | I did, it booted. | 02:01 |
| holstein | x5ives: then, you can decide if you want to alert the lubuntu team about the issue and/or file a bug, after you get someone to confirm that | 02:02 |
| x5ives | Confirm what? | 02:02 |
| holstein | x5ives: that the "verify" step in the installer doesnt work.. or didnt work for you | 02:03 |
| x5ives | Well, how do I get someone else to confirm it? | 02:03 |
| holstein | x5ives: ? | 02:04 |
| x5ives | Yes? | 02:05 |
| x5ives | You said after I get someone to confirm, how do I go about doing that? | 02:05 |
| holstein | x5ives: you would say to someone "hey, do you have the latest lubntu iso? if not, would you mind downloading it from *insertlink* and test the verify step and see if it works for you?" | 02:05 |
| holstein | x5ives: otherwise, you can look for a bug about it.. or just use the CD.. its obviously fine | 02:06 |
| x5ives | I'm pretty sure if it didn't work for anyone they would know about it and have fixed it by now. | 02:07 |
| holstein | x5ives: why? | 02:07 |
| x5ives | It would have been reported by now. | 02:07 |
| x5ives | Ages ago. | 02:07 |
| holstein | x5ives: i have installed lubuntu plenty.. at least a few times each release since 10.04 or before. and i have *never* tried that step | 02:07 |
| holstein | x5ives: thats why i suggested searching for a bug relating to it | 02:08 |
| x5ives | I did a Google search. | 02:08 |
| holstein | otherwise.. i would get someone to confirm, so you know its not just somehting about your machine | 02:08 |
| x5ives | People at #lubuntu told my if the integrity check won't work the disk is corrupted and I shouldn't try to install with it. | 02:09 |
| holstein | x5ives: as stated.. this is what i do.. since i know my internet | 02:10 |
| holstein | i download. i burn, i use.. *if* i have an issue, i check the md5 sum.. then i might run that integrity check | 02:10 |
| holstein | otherwise, if the cd is booting, i would try using it | 02:10 |
| holstein | you obviously have a working disk.. and you arent getting an error message about the disk.. the test is either not working, or soething about your system is throwing it off | 02:11 |
| holstein | what would i do? try the disk.. | 02:11 |
| x5ives | Alright then. | 02:14 |
| x5ives | Worked, thanks. | 05:14 |
| rostam | HI I have installed a Ubuntu 12.04 system on one of my PCs. Over last a few months I have installed many different packages on that system. Now I would like to install a second system with exact image and packages that I installed on the first one. Is there a utility or a way I can automate this process? thx | 12:55 |
| holstein | rostam: there is a menu item in synaptic | 14:46 |

| yolandre | hi | 18:44 |
| yolandre | hoping i'm at the rightchannel.... | 18:44 |
| yolandre | having problems installing 13.04 x64 to dual boot with win 8 pro. | 18:45 |
| phillw | yolandre: have a read of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2088425 if that does not answer the question, then feel free to create a new question on the ubuntu-forum area. | 18:49 |
| phillw | 12.10 and 13.04 are both uefi compliant :) | 18:49 |
| Unit193 | !uefi | 18:51 |
| ubot93 | 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/UEFI | 18:51 |
| phillw | i love it when they leave just as you propose a place to go look :D | 19:03 |
