| CraHan | For those interested (you never know :D), my VirtualBox issue is resolved. Apparently the latest guest additions (4.3.6) don't recognize the X version in 14.04 so they fail to install.

| coolgoat | Hello there! I'm having an issue with installation of the 64-bit version of 13.10 via usb, and was hoping someone on here would be able to help. Computer is a Gigabyte motherboard with an AMD FX processor. The BIOS is set to boot from usb. When I let it boot, I get the Try Without Installing/Install/Install OEM/Check Disk For Errors screen. Whichever option I pick (though I haven't tried OEM), I get the Xubuntu loading screen for a | 16:09 |
| holstein | coolgoat: i would just work back through the variables.. does the stick boot on *any* other machine.. can the machine boot *any* usb stick.. does the md5 sum check? | 16:10 |
| holstein | !md5 | 16:10 |
| ubottu | 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 | 16:10 |
| holstein | what did you use to make the stick? if unetbootin, try something else.. of not unetbootin, try it | 16:10 |
| holstein | try optical media if its an option | 16:11 |
| holstein | !mini | 16:11 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 16:11 |
| holstein | ^^ you can use one of these iso's to install minimal 64bit ubuntu, and add what you want/need, such as xubuntu-desktop | 16:11 |
| coolgoat | I checked the MD5, I don't have another usb around to test with unfortunately, I did use unetbootin, and I'll give the minimalcd a shot. | 16:12 |
| holstein | coolgoat: dont get caught up and any step here. just keep moving.. keep in mind that the iso's *do* work, and this is something on your end | 16:13 |
| holstein | coolgoat: just keep going through the things that you can address and test for | 16:13 |
| coolgoat | Also, the actual error it gives is "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" if that's any help | 16:14 |
| holstein | sure.. that could be any of the above issues.. bad stick.. bad method of creating stick.. bad iso.. machine doesnt boot USB proprely. .. bad hardware | 16:14 |
| holstein | coolgoat: i would start with trying unetbootin if you are not, after checking the md5 sum | 16:15 |
| holstein | coolgoat: you could elaborate about how you make the stick.. dd? unet? | 16:15 |
| coolgoat | Yeah, I checked the md5 of the iso and used unetbootin to create the usb I'm using | 16:15 |
| holstein | i have had issues with unet before.. you can try formatting the stick fresh and try unet again.. or try dd copying.. its quicker to get a result using the mini iso's since they are smaller | 16:16 |
| coolgoat | makes sense, I'll give the mini a shot | 16:17 |
| coolgoat | I did try dd before and got the same error, but I'm also not 100% sure I formatted it correctly that time | 16:17 |
| holstein | sure.. and all your hardware is still in the equation.. same stick, same computer.. etc | 16:18 |
| holstein | you can keep trying software solutions all you want, but if thats a bad stick, or the hardware is bad, you wont "fix" the installer.. since its not broken | 16:19 |
| holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/15425/unable-to-find-a-medium-containing-a-live-file-system-error-when-installing suggests similar levels of troubleshooting | 16:20 |
| coolgoat | yeah, but unfortunately I don't have another stick around, and the only other computer I have is the one I'm on now | 16:20 |
| holstein | tring different usb ports, and bios settings | 16:20 |
| coolgoat | yeah, I've already gone through that one unfortunately | 16:20 |
| holstein | ideally, you would have *any* other computer laying about.. then you can say "i know this stick works" | 16:20 |
| holstein | otherwise, you are troubleshooting the media and the machine at the same time | 16:21 |
| coolgoat | yeah, but this isn't really an ideal situation. the computer i'm on now sees the usb and mounts it, but i haven't tried actually booting into it | 16:22 |
| holstein | seeing and mounting is not relevant | 16:22 |
| coolgoat | yeah, that's what i figured | 16:22 |
| holstein | coolgoat: what you are asking the machine to do is *before* all of that | 16:22 |
| holstein | coolgoat: at a bios level | 16:22 |
| coolgoat | yeah, that's what i thought | 16:22 |
| holstein | all you can determine from that is, the stick is probably not broken, and the motherboard/usb hardware is probably not broken | 16:23 |
| holstein | coolgoat: you have tried booting a CD/DVD? | 16:24 |
| holstein | coolgoat: have you ever booting *anything* other than an internal hard drive on that machine? | 16:24 |
| coolgoat | all i've tried is internal hard drive and this usb | 16:25 |
| coolgoat | i've got an optical drive but since 13.10 doesn't fit on a cd and i don't have any blank dvds i couldn't try the optical | 16:25 |
| coolgoat | i'll try a mini iso on a cd though | 16:26 |
| holstein | sounds like a plan | 16:27 |
| coolgoat | should i burn it at any particular speed? | 16:29 |
| coolgoat | options are 8x and 24x | 16:29 |
| holstein | coolgoat: thats up to you.. its all hardware related.. nothing particular to xubuntu in any way | 16:29 |
| holstein | what would i do? go with defaults til that fails, then try slower, hopefuly more reliable speeds | 16:30 |
| coolgoat | right on | 16:30 |
| holstein | you should be able to at least rule out bios setting issues and the usb stick here with a CD and the mini iso | 16:30 |
| === Guest57934 is now known as mapps | ||
| coolgoat | i've tried the mini iso cd and unfortunately my internet connection is having issues but the installation got up to configuring the network, so it seems like optical would work? | 17:30 |
| holstein | coolgoat: if its working, sure | 17:30 |
| holstein | coolgoat: could be a bad usb stick, or something to do with the machine booting USB | 17:31 |
| coolgoat | it can't configure the network so it can't download the install files but i figure if it's gotten this far it should be fine | 17:31 |
| coolgoat | yeah, seems so | 17:31 |
| coolgoat | i guess i'll wait until i can get some blank dvds and try that | 17:31 |
| holstein | sure.. or, how are you trying to connect to the network? wireless? | 17:31 |
| coolgoat | ethernet plugged into the router | 17:31 |
| holstein | that should work. i would let the installer complete, then reboot, and install from the command prompt | 17:32 |
| coolgoat | well, the thing is, it says it can't configure dhcp | 17:32 |
| holstein | coolgoat: dont install anything while installing the system, and dont let 'it" do anything | 17:32 |
| holstein | coolgoat: you will make the system connect after its installed | 17:32 |
| coolgoat | oh, alright | 17:32 |
| coolgoat | so i can skip network autoconfig then? | 17:33 |
| holstein | coolgoat: i do | 17:33 |
| coolgoat | alright, cool, thanks | 17:33 |
| holstein | coolgoat: i just break it up.. im just trying to install. otherwise, im again troubleshooting many things at once | 17:33 |
| coolgoat | makes sense | 17:33 |
| holstein | i just get an installed system, and go from there | 17:34 |
| holstein | ideally, it'll "just work" from the installed system.. | 17:34 |
| coolgoat | hmm, i'm not sure if it's actually installing. the screen is just purple with a white bar at the bottom | 17:36 |
| holstein | coolgoat: id give it some time.. its not the installer you are likely used to seeing | 17:38 |
| coolgoat | alright, will do | 17:38 |
| xubuntu364 | Newbie with 13.10 successfully installed on Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop (i.e., replace Vista). However, there is no wifi signal (and it is turned on) so I am assuming a missing driver. Can anyone advise how to find and install driver. Thanks. | 17:39 |
| coolgoat | holstein: is the bar at the bottom a progress bar by any chance? the leftmost part of it is black but doesn't seem to be changing | 17:39 |
| holstein | coolgoat: id have to see it.. i dont typically wait on "it" to do things.. but it wont hurt to give it a few minutes | 17:41 |
| holstein | !wifi | xubuntu364 | 17:41 |
| ubottu | xubuntu364: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:41 |
| holstein | xubuntu364: its likely just a broadcom driver issue.. | 17:41 |
| holstein | !broadcom | 17:42 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 17:42 |
| holstein | i would run "lspci" in a terminal and see if you see "broadcom" there.. then, the page above will help you determine what package broadcom doesnt allow ubuntu/linux to provide you easily | 17:42 |
| === CraHan|out is now known as CraHan | ||
| coolgoat | holstein: turns out that white bar was a command line | 18:07 |
| holstein | coolgoat: lol | 18:08 |
| coolgoat | any advice? "help" doesn't return anything | 18:12 |
| holstein | coolgoat: on installing? just follow the installer.. if its not instaling, restart, and try again | 18:13 |
| === CraHan is now known as CraHan|out | ||
| coolgoat | ah, alright, thanks | 18:15 |
| holstein | coolgoat: you can talk down the steps you are seeing if you want | 18:15 |
| coolgoat | restart, goes to GNU GRUB version 2.00-19ubuntu2, options are install/command-line install/expert install/command-line expert install/rescue mode | 18:21 |
| coolgoat | my instinct would be to go with install but maybe that's not the best option? | 18:21 |
| holstein | i do normal defaults until it doesnt meet my needs | 18:22 |
| holstein | the simpler setups. | 18:22 |
| coolgoat | right on, makes sense | 18:22 |
| holstein | i say, if this iso isnt working for you, let it go, and try the lubuntu one.. you can install xfce or xubuntu-desktop from there, and it should be cd sized | 18:23 |
| holstein | you can burn up hours/days at this stuff... | 18:23 |
| coolgoat | yeah, i think my internet connection might just not be working for some reason | 18:26 |
| holstein | could be.. that'll be key to the minimal at some point | 18:26 |
| coolgoat | i'll give lubuntu a shot if it'll fit on a cd. if not i might just put it off until i can get a dvd | 18:26 |
| coolgoat | unfortunately downloading lubuntu is going to take about an hour so i'm gonna go ahead and hop off of here, but thanks a lot for your help! | 18:29 |
