| silverlion | MACscr : on that login page there must be a way to change the setting in the upper right corner of your screen | 09:55 |
| silverlion | at least that's where I change the DEs | 09:55 |
| MACscr | ah, i missed that. Can i select the default there? | 09:56 |

| Hulksmash | hi, as i put 10gb primary ext4 mount point / the rest of my free space becomes unusable | 23:03 |
| Hulksmash | i need to make 2 logical positions ext4 /home and ext2 swap | 23:04 |
| Hulksmash | partitions i mean | 23:04 |
| Hulksmash | guess i had to adds the 2 logical partitions first before making the primary(which was 4th primary) | 23:12 |
| phillw | Hulksmash: not making a lot of sense... | 23:15 |
| phillw | as swap is 'swap' it is not ext2 etc. | 23:16 |
| Hulksmash | i installed lubuntu but it won't boot imgur.com/oLgoYLV help please | 23:33 |
| Hulksmash | phillw: thank you, noted | 23:36 |
| Hulksmash | i still need help :( | 23:36 |
| phillw | Hulksmash: are you booting from CD or USB? | 23:38 |
| Hulksmash | phillw: usb boot works but post install boot hdd doesn't | 23:44 |
| phillw | Hulksmash: when you boot the usb device, ask it to do a "check CD". that way we know your USB is not corrupt. | 23:45 |
| Hulksmash | phillw: i've used this usb to install many distros | 23:45 |
| phillw | usb writing is some what hit and miss at the moment | 23:45 |
| phillw | Hulksmash: that matters not, it is if the ISO is corrupted that we need to check... only takes a few minutes :) | 23:46 |
| Hulksmash | phillw: ok how do i check cd | 23:47 |
| phillw | boot with it and select 'check CD', this also works on DVD / USB sticks, just a legacy name for doing the full md5 checksum. | 23:48 |
| Hulksmash | check disc for defects | 23:50 |
| Hulksmash | no errors found | 23:51 |
| Hulksmash | it seems to be a problem with uuid? | 23:52 |
| phillw | Hulksmash: good, that means we have a good ISO to install from | 23:52 |
| phillw | I'm not familiar with your partition table, can you paste bin up your partition table.... | 23:54 |
| phillw | sudo fdisk -l | 23:54 |
