curlyfrustrated*sigh*  greetings, all16:04
curlyfrustratedhello, TJ-16:04
curlyfrustratedTJ-:  I have install LTS 14.04.2 about 6 times, now, adn each time it has failed to boot, with a different error reported each time.  I have used the same hardware and the same install options each time.16:05
curlyfrustratedthe only person who had any relevant knowledge parted from #ubuntu16:06
curlyfrustratedrats, he's AFK, apparently16:10
curlyfrustratedAFK16:23
curlyerashi, TJ-18:36
curlyerasanyone in here actually here?18:36
BluesKajcurlyeras,yes18:41
curlyerasBlueKaj:   I have installed LTS14.04.2 8 tmies now, using the same CD, same hardware, same options.  Each time the install completes without error, and prompts me for a restart.  Everu time, it fails, each time with a different error message and result.   I am totally baffled.18:59
curlyerasSome have suggested it is because I am using a 3TB drive, but if 14.04.2 has problesm with drives that large, wouldn't the installer complain?\19:00
curlyerasI should clarify, they fail to boot, with different reasons\19:01
damascenecurlyeras, I think this channel is for the coming Ubuntu 16.0419:03
curlyerasBluesKaj:   what sorts of blues do you prefer19:03
curlyeras?19:03
damasceneanyway you should specify which error are you exactly seeing on screen19:04
curlyerasdamascene: I am aware.  There have been a few, notably TJ-, who have helped me here, when the #ubuntu hannal has no one who knows19:07
curlyerasdamascene: how can I specify which error I am gettting?  It is different every time19:07
curlyerascompaints about "inappropriate magic", necessary files not being present, and  now, it is dropping me into grub19:08
curlyerasI have no way to copy-paste them becsue when they happen I have no capture tool available, as I have no running OS19:09
curlyerasdrops me into grop acter complaing about inappropriate mage19:10
curlyerass/ grop acter/grub after/19:10
curlyerass/mage/magic19:11
damasceneI do not think it's easy to help you if you did not specify what is the error19:11
damascenedid you try any other version of Ubuntu?19:11
curlyerasdamascene: if you like, I'll reboot, and write the entire messga ee out on papaer, then reboot agaibn, and return here to type it ibn (one line at a time) (about 3 lines)19:12
curlyerasI have no other version of ubuntu.  this is on a DVD I createddI created in late 201419:12
damasceneif it's the same message every time that will help. but you are saying it's different every time. Any way providing the message would be better than no providing any thing19:12
curlyerasit's different every time I INSTALL it.19:13
curlyerasI haven't re-install since the prior fILURE, SO THE ERROR WILL BE THE SAME19:13
curlyerasoops, sowwy for the caps19:13
damascenedid you run disk check to verify the integrity of the DVD?19:14
damascene*DVD check19:14
curlyerashow do I run DVD check?  I haven't heard of this tool19:15
damascenehttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/CDIntegrityCheck19:17
curlyerasand can I run it while I am booted up on it in  Live CD modwe?19:17
damasceneI think so19:17
curlyerasoops, I jusr realized I mistyped my nick again  *blush*19:18
curlyerasso, how do I run it?19:18
damasceneread the link19:18
curlyeras*wow*  there are CHANNELS of Freenode with 1800+ user...EFnet typically ran a total of about 2200 user on the total network, and there were HUNDREDS f channels19:19
curlyerasOK, I'll go try that, but it requires me to reoot19:21
curlyeras\reboot19:21
curlyerasdowwy, didn't see the link come through, found it, read iot.  Thanks19:21
BluesKajcurlyeras, I play drums in a blues/rock band, hence the nick19:24
penguin42he's been fighting that for days now19:27
CurlyearsWell, the instructions for accessing ghe chek DVD menu which are written on that page do not work.  I have never seen this menu.  How do I access it?19:28
Curlyearsat least, they don't seem to work here.  First I tried with holding the "space" key down.  No joy.  Then I tried holding ghe " M" key down, still no joy.  )-:19:30
Curlyearsthw instructions said reboot from the CD, and hold "any ley" down while booting from the CD (DVD in this case)19:31
Curlyearshi, penguin42slightly different problems today19:32
Curlyearscan you boot from  Blu-ray disk?19:33
* penguin42 has never tried, don't have one19:33
BluesKajwho needs bluray ;-)19:37
* lotuspsychje has mede8er 1080p mediaplayer19:37
CurlyearsBluesKaj:   don't need to boot from Blu-ray, just wondering if it's doable19:38
geniiI have one in my laptop I used in 2008 and not since19:38
geniiYes, it is19:38
Curlyearshey, genii19:38
Curlyearsbe right back19:38
* genii waves19:38
BluesKajCurlyears, just needs to be bootable19:39
BluesKajlotuspsychje, vlc does the job here19:39
lotuspsychjevlc to the rescue19:40
curlyearswell, it's not the DVD, I ran the disk verifcation, and it passes with no errors reported.  SO verystrange19:54
curlyearsgenii:   do you have a little time?19:56
curlyearsI have cycled through installing and trying to reboot 8 times  Same hardware, same DVD, same options chosen, but every time  it fails to boot, and reports differing errors annd results.. Sometime, it hangs. sometimes it drops me into grub, other times it compalins about initramfs  and dies19:58
curlyearscould it be that 14.04.2 LTS can't handle very large drives (mine is 3TB, which I have been trying to installl as a single large partition).  Wouldn't the installer issue some sort of error message?20:00
lotuspsychjecurlyears: why do you keep saying 14.04.220:01
lotuspsychjeyou need to update your system20:01
BluesKajor the OS image20:01
curlyearslotuspsychje:   to be certain that everyone understands which system I am working with, of course20:02
curlyearsI have to get it installed, before I can update it20:02
lotuspsychjecurlyears: install 14.04.3 image as BluesKaj say20:02
curlyearslotuspsychje: can I d/l and burn a new DVD while booted in Live CD mode?20:03
lotuspsychjecurlyears: dont you have a spare usb?20:03
curlyearslotuspsychje: :   yeah.   burn it to that?20:03
lotuspsychjecurlyears: make an usb with disk creator yes20:04

curlyearsI made this DVD by buring the .iso to the drive in bootable mode20:06
lotuspsychjeicon with hd + ubuntu logo + green arrow20:06
curlyearsI don't see such an icon20:06
lotuspsychjedash20:07

on247systemctl stop apache2 , looks like it worked20:35
on247still running20:35
on247still listening on netstat20:35
penguin42on247: Try systemctl | grep apache2   - you might find it's also setup as a service20:36
on247also ?20:36
penguin42on247: I've not got apache2 on this box20:36
penguin42on247: But systemctl can also do something like inetd, so I'm just wondering if it restarted it20:36
on247there is no apache service actually20:39
on247and it didnt tell me when i tried to stop ?20:39
on247why i wouldnt have the service20:40
penguin42on247: Is it called http or something instead?20:42
on247no , just tried20:42
penguin42on247: Check with   systemctl --list-unit-files     it sometimes doesn't list stuff that's not enabled/running20:43
