[04:34] <rfoley> anyone very familiar with dvd install.  "unable to find a medium containing a live file system"  error.
[04:34] <holstein> rfoley: its the same
[04:35] <holstein> !Install
[04:35] <holstein> rfoley: in that case, i would confirm the media.. start with the md5 sum
[04:35] <holstein> !md5
[04:35] <holstein> then, you can simply try the DVD in another machine.. you could have a bad iso, bad DVD, bad optical drive, or any other hardware
[04:36] <rfoley> checksums match.   and dvd has been used to install 2 other systems
[04:36] <holstein> rfoley: then, you *know* its not a problem with that DVD in that case
[04:36] <holstein> rfoley: i have seen errors like that with bad ram, bad optical drives.. bad motherboards.. etc
[04:37] <rfoley> i had similar trouble about a year ago with this one installing suse,  im coming to ubuntu and again...
[04:37] <rfoley> is there a known way to manually start installation in the busybox shell that is keeps kicking me out into?
[04:37] <holstein> if you have a hardware issue, such as a bad optical drive, there is little you can do other than boot something else.. i would start with a USB stick, and boot it
[04:38] <rfoley> i had to do manual install and tweak settings on other distros
[04:38] <holstein> rfoley: no. if the optical drive is failing, you cant manually force something that is going to go around that
[04:38] <holstein> !mini
[04:38] <holstein> !nomodeset
[04:38] <holstein> rfoley: you can try kernel modes at the nomodeset screen
[04:39] <rfoley> ok.  thanks all for input and help.  it will not boot from usb (old pentium 4 board)  but will try minimal and suggestions and report back.
[04:40] <holstein> rfoley: you can use many ways to boot usb there, such as plop
[04:40] <holstein> http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager/
[04:41] <holstein> i use plop to boot USB sticks on older hardware that boot a CD and allow me to then point to USB boot from the loaded plop cd
[04:41] <holstein> this can help be get around many issues, such as tempermental optical drives
[04:41] <holstein>  you can also take the hard drive out, and go to an easier, more supported machine, and install to the hard drive.. then, put the hard drive back in the machine
[04:41] <holstein> rfoley: you likely want lubuntu, and not ubuntustudio anyway, on that hardware
[04:41] <holstein> !lubuntu
[04:43] <holstein> i would get lubuntu and try the nomodest and noacpi and any other options under the f6 menu in the live installer.. as well as trying to bypass hardware and isolate what could be (and likely is) failing on hardware of that age
[05:24] <rfoley> holstein thank you.  plop and a minimal cd image on usb is working well.
[05:25] <holstein> rfoley: cheers.. maybe its simple as a bad optical drive, then
[05:25] <rfoley> hardware is old but used for audio production.  recieves midi and older digital audio and relays to more powerful machine for processing.
[05:25] <holstein> sure.. but the lubuntu base is likely more appropriate
[05:26] <holstein> you can use lubuntu with lxde, and add the lowlatency kernel from the repo that ubuntustudio ships with, and whatever that ubuntustuduio ships with that you want to use
[05:26] <holstein> its all ubuntu
[05:26] <rfoley> drives ram processor test good, but it keeps having trouble recognizing and using ide devices.  i think ide controllers and circuitry on mb but need this one for old equiptment
[05:27] <rfoley> may look to lubuntu
[05:27] <holstein> they are *all* ubuntu
[05:27] <holstein> you can literally "sudo apt-get install lxde" and try lxde at login
[05:28] <rfoley> certainly.  and many thanks.  i tried other channels and this was the only one with ideas to try.
[09:15] <audioman> Hi folks! Newbee here. Using UbuntuStudio 14.04 and a PreSonus FP10. Trying to open new project in Ardour connecting to JACK, FFADO and JACK2 Midi engine. Doing this JACK is being started in the background (Presonus switching status to active FireWire) but Ardour says it can't connect to te Audio/Midi engine. Any thoughts? First starting JACK with QtjackCtl doesn't help as Ardour 3.0 wants to open the JACK s

[14:12] <Guest47013> please help me
[17:52] <Jmainguy> are you hard wired, wireless, anything running like updates? are other computers on the same network faster? are they connected the same way?
