| CoolCanuck | I'm having huge struggles with installing xubutu via flash drive. I've tried 4 times - both with ext4 and xfs, resulting in four hours of trying. I've google searched, tried the commands.. - after it asks me to reboot, i say ok, xubuntu shuts down, I unplug my flash drive.. my computer bootsnad grub goes into recovery/rescue because file system isn't known | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| CoolCanuck | :'( | 00:35 |
| ax562 | do you have anything worth saving on your hdd? | 00:41 |
| ax562 | coolcanuck? | 00:42 |
| CoolCanuck | I have a windows 10 install and some movies | 00:42 |
| CoolCanuck | I've also converted MBR to GPT and still no luck | 00:43 |
| ax562 | does your windows partition boot? | 00:47 |
| CoolCanuck | no | 00:47 |
| CoolCanuck | I can boot into live cd though | 00:47 |
| CoolCanuck | (for xubuntu) | 00:48 |
| ax562 | I usually manually setup my partitions when Install xubuntu using gparted in live cd | 00:48 |
| ax562 | also setup or have windows already setup | 00:48 |
| CoolCanuck | my linux sysadmin friend tried partitioning my system | 00:49 |
| ax562 | you can do it yourself | 00:49 |
| CoolCanuck | I know | 00:49 |
| ax562 | I believe windows likes being first partition always | 00:49 |
| CoolCanuck | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/WV5omdSf/ | 00:50 |
| CoolCanuck | before xfs formatting and such | 00:50 |
| ax562 | [windows 10 partition partition][xubuntu partition][swap partition] | 00:51 |
| CoolCanuck | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/MRACMt6f/ | 00:51 |
| CoolCanuck | so if I put W10 first, it should work? | 00:51 |
| CoolCanuck | I dont think it will boot.. now that I'm GPT. (that's fine) | 00:51 |
| ax562 | I would create ntfs partition first then create a partition with all info you don't want to lose, then xubuntu ext4, then swap | 00:54 |
| ax562 | [ntfs][backup ntfs][ext4][swap] using gparted in xubuntu live cd | 00:55 |
| ax562 | then install windows 10 in [ntfs] partition | 00:56 |
| ax562 | then install xubuntu in [ext4] partition | 00:56 |
| CoolCanuck | ah ok | 00:56 |
| CoolCanuck | I will try that | 00:56 |
| CoolCanuck | I dont need windows 10 to boot. Just access to the files. | 00:57 |
| ax562 | well it's up to you | 00:57 |
| Anonaly_ | so I install xubuntu 16.04, no fglrx, I have to manually start xfwm4 every time, | 01:00 |
| ax562 | if you don't want windows 10 partition just create partition for files | 01:01 |
| Anonaly_ | but even after I start xfwm4 I still have no titlebar for firefox and other programs | 01:02 |
| Anonaly_ | I cannot minimize firefox | 01:02 |
| ax562 | but if you ever want windows I believe that it has to be first partition on hdd coolcanuck | 01:04 |
| Anonaly_ | looks like I have to downgrade back to 14.04 :( | 01:05 |
| ax562 | why? | 01:05 |
| Anonaly_ | 16.04 is giving me problems | 01:05 |
| ax562 | I would try fresh install | 01:05 |
| Anonaly_ | I just did | 01:05 |
| CoolCanuck | havey you tried reconfiguring you packages? | 01:05 |
| Anonaly_ | no titlebar for firefox | 01:05 |
| CoolCanuck | reinstall or whatever | 01:05 |
| Anonaly_ | xfwm4 --replace does not fix it | 01:05 |
| ax562 | sudo apt-get update | 01:06 |
| CoolCanuck | screenshot? | 01:06 |
| ax562 | sudo apt-get upgrade | 01:06 |
| CoolCanuck | I know firefox and chrome look different than usual title bars | 01:06 |
| Anonaly_ | yeah I don't have a minimize button or anything | 01:06 |
| Anonaly_ | can't get it out of the way | 01:06 |
| Anonaly_ | other programs have titlebars though | 01:06 |
| ax562 | that's weird | 01:06 |
| ax562 | try | 01:06 |
| Anonaly_ | like this hexchat | 01:06 |
| ax562 | sudo apt-get update | 01:06 |
| ax562 | sudo apt-get upgrade | 01:06 |
| Anonaly_ | ok | 01:07 |
| Anonaly_ | doing that | 01:07 |
| ax562 | or sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 01:09 |
| CoolCanuck | :P | 01:10 |
| Anonaly_ | alright as long as I get to keep 16.04 | 01:19 |
| Anonaly_ | and not ugprade to a non-lts version like 16.10 | 01:19 |
| Anonaly_ | thats happened to me before and I had to downgrade afterwards | 01:19 |

| Anonaly_ | k figured something out | 02:08 |
