| help_me_boot | Hi all, hoping someone will be able to help me recover my MBR. I dual-boot windows7/Ubuntu and used grub2. I tried to reinstall windows but it gave me an error about the MBR, I booted into a live cd and removed the MBR (overwrote with /dev/zero) I now cannot boot anything... As last resort, I'd like to be able to recover my data off a seperate NTFS partition and start from scratch. I've tried "Boot Repair" but there is no 'r | 08:32 |
|---|---|---|
| help_me_boot | I can't seem to be able to see my seperate NTFS partition from the live CD | 08:33 |
| olly | help_me_boot: all I can suggest is trying a non-region-specific ubuntu channel - there aren't a lot of people here, so the chances someone will know are smaller | 09:08 |
| G | hads: at the moment, I'm nearly set on an ALIX, glances seem to indicate that there isn't much better in that field, unless I went for a fit-pc, but they seem to well over double the price of an ALIX | 09:22 |
| help_me_boot | olly: Thanks, I joing #Ubuntu and managed to get some advise, cheers | 09:30 |
| olly | great | 09:30 |
| hads | G: ALIX is the cheapest and quite common. There's Soekris but they are more expensive. | 09:35 |
| hads | There's a few mini-ITX boards around but they aren't normally fanless and often require ATX power rather than a DC jack like the ALIX | 09:36 |
| G | hads: did Intel rid themselves of their Atom boards that had a DC jack? | 09:36 |
| hads | There may be another one, they keep discontinuing them though. Most all of those were single Ethernet | 09:37 |
| hads | On the other hand the ALIX is quite slow, but it depends what you're wanting to do with it | 09:38 |
| G | ahh yep, basically looking at doing some routing/VPN/network tasks on it | 09:39 |
| hads | There's this too; https://nicegear.co.nz/routers/ubiquiti-edgerouter-lite/ | 09:39 |
| G | VPN is whats going to kill with the performance | 09:39 |
| G | ooooh, you've got that one now? | 09:39 |
| hads | Those are quite cool, I use one for our UFB here. | 09:40 |
| G | does it do OpenVPN, and whats the DHCP implementation like? | 09:40 |
| hads | root@justice:~# dhcpd3 -v | 09:42 |
| hads | Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server 4.1-ESV-R7 | 09:42 |
| hads | http://wiki.ubnt.com/OpenVPN_Remote_Access_-_CLI_Commands | 09:43 |
| G | hads: I think you've just convinced me :) | 09:48 |

| hads | G: Interesting point about CSC, thanks for letting me know. | 19:36 |
| hads | There's new things to think about with websites all the time as browsers keep changing. | 19:36 |

| G | hads: yeah, tbh CSC isn't as bad as the actual number | 23:05 |
