| ianorlin | yes you can check md5 | 01:47 |
|---|---|---|
| ForTheWin | lubuntu, lxle, and xubuntu all failed to boot after installation, so i gave up and installed mint. I kept getting can't find UUID. Anyone know why? | 03:55 |
| ianorlin | can't find uuid? | 04:05 |
| holstein | ForTheWin: no.. and the installers should actually be all quite similar.. so, i wouldnt assume that its something with the *buntu's | 04:50 |
| holstein | ForTheWin: i would check the md5 sums, and maybe test my hard drive.. or, just use and enjoy mint since its working.. | 04:50 |
| ForTheWin | holstein: yeah, i think im done tinkering for now, just gonna live with mint xfce. thank you | 04:52 |
| ForTheWin | ianorlin: yeah x wouldnt run, it dumps me to initramfs | 04:52 |
| holstein | ForTheWin: those are quite different.. and if "x wouldnt run" i would think the iso is bad | 04:53 |
| holstein | !md5 | 04:53 |
| 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 | 04:53 |
| holstein | or, the installation media | 04:53 |
| ForTheWin | i did the check disc thing in the grub menu | 04:57 |
| ForTheWin | of the livesession | 04:57 |
| holstein | ForTheWin: "x wouldnt start" means you cant get to the live session, correct? | 04:58 |
| holstein | so you ran a disk integrity check from the grub menu? before the live session? | 04:58 |
| ForTheWin | no i got to the live session fine | 05:00 |
| holstein | ForTheWin: what do you mean by "x wouldnt run" then? | 05:00 |
| ForTheWin | x wouldnt start after installation success | 05:00 |
| holstein | you mean, after installation failed? | 05:00 |
| ForTheWin | installation finished without a hitch | 05:00 |
| ForTheWin | but when i reboot, x wouldnt start | 05:01 |
| holstein | i call that a hitch | 05:01 |
| holstein | anyways.. at that point, thats when i test the hard drive | 05:01 |
| holstein | could be, the drive is bad/failing.. and you sqeaked a mint install on it somehow | 05:01 |
| ForTheWin | i think youre right | 05:01 |
| ForTheWin | how do i test my hd | 05:01 |
| holstein | i use gsmartcontrol.. it'll be installable from the repos on the live CD's or mint | 05:02 |
| holstein | but, you want to run it from a live CD | 05:02 |
| ForTheWin | right because i need the hd unmounted, correct? | 05:02 |
| holstein | i would want that.. | 05:02 |
| ForTheWin | ok thank you i will lookfor gsmartcontrol | 05:03 |

| wub_wub | Hi, I downloaded the alternate installer because I wanted to install lubuntu on a low end machine, before installing it on the real pc I decided to try it out in virtualbox, however the installer keeps crashing at the configure software part. Is this a known bug or something on my end? | 10:04 |
| testdr | wub_wub: check the download iso - md5sum - last time i tried the alternate-lubuntu-iso (was version 14.04.0) it worked without flaws on a low-end-laptop with only 256mb-memory. | 10:07 |
| wub_wub | testdr, yup it's correct, also the check disc for defects option runs fine. Could it be that this is an issue specific to my hardware/VM and that it won't happen on the machine I intend to install it on? | 10:11 |
| wub_wub | I'm debating atm whether to try it out or just re-install windows xp which works | 10:12 |
| testdr | wub_wub: if you run the lubuntu-iso in qemu, there should be no problem. But i suspect you are using windows-vm? May be there are some settings not available. As far i know, there could be a problem with pxe (it not available) and there is a low-mem-limit around at 100-200MB memory. The first install should be without internet-updates | 10:15 |
| testdr | if pxe is not available - that could be the fault | 10:15 |
| wub_wub | No I'm using xubuntu/virtualbox to try and install it, xubuntu and ubuntu installs fine with the default settings and 1gb of ram assigned. | 10:16 |
| testdr | wub_wub: then poste the qemu-start-commandline for the iso | 10:16 |
| wub_wub | As soon as I figure out how to do it, sure. | 10:17 |
| testdr | wub_wub: it should be something like: qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -vga std -m 1G -cdrom NameOfLubuntuISO | 10:18 |
| wub_wub | Yeah... you know what, I'll just go with XP - I don't really feel like debugging this and don't want to waste any more of your time. Thank you! | 10:19 |
