Either UEFI or [00:13] Legacy boor [00:13] boot* [00:13] ive disabled UEFI and left legacy boor on I think [00:14] chris_: Reboot the installer to " try ubuntu" and pastebin ' sudo parted -l " so we know what the partitions on the drive are ( look'n like I see win10 as a MBR install ?? ) [00:16] ill try that @bashing-om gimme 10 minutes [00:16] chris_: On a single disk one must match what ever mode that Win10 is installed in . [00:16] just to be clear for it to work uefi has to be disabled, right? [00:18] chris_: Nope, I hope and expect it is the other way around ,... that UEFI is enabled . show us what is from parted -l so we are sure .

[01:50] Chris_ whats your problem? [01:51] I am trying to follow the Ubuntu instructions, but it's not lining up [01:51] CuChulaind: you set it up manually with mdadm and then the md will become available in the installer for you to use further. [01:51] chris__: In that lat scrren shot I liked the USB1 -UEFI option . [01:51] fallentree, ok, the instructions say to go to manual setup, on each drive set up a swap, then the rest as a bootable partition [01:52] after doing that to all drives, then go to the RAID setup [01:52] fallentree, you're saying go to the RAID setup (md) let that run, then it will ask how I want to set it up? [01:52] the partitions that is [01:52] CuChulaind: that's one way. you could also set up LVM and everything else atop of that LVM which is using md's [01:52] CuChulaind: chris__ is trying to install dual boot with Win10 . [01:52] gabrielC no partitions are showing up in the ubuntu installation. [01:53] Chris_ whew.. [01:53] CuChulaind: no, I'm saying set up the raid with mdadm in terminal, then the devices it creates will be available in the installer to use them as physical disks [01:53] tried Gnome Desk? [01:53] CuChulaind: this is a nice reference tutorial: http://www.ducea.com/2009/03/08/mdadm-cheat-sheet/ [01:53] That's weird. On a brand new install of 16.04, sync-accounts results in "Can't use 'defined(@array)' (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) at /usr/bin/sync-accounts line 67." [01:54] fallentree, I'm doing a fresh ubuntu install, so do it on say a small partition of the first of 3 drives, boot into it, then in terminal run mdadm [01:54] Bashing-om, why dual boot? [01:54] CuChulaind: no, you can do it all from the live USB [01:54] chris__: Be aware that as Windows is EFI, if you boot legacy in the installer, the installer will not see the GPT partitioning . [01:54] fallentree, ok [01:55] CuChulaind: that's three drives you said you had? [01:55] Let's say i uninstall 10 packages on a newly installed ubuntu(mate) system, how would i without knowing which packages this was, install them.. i want to install all packages that came with ubuntu-mate [01:55] but How? [01:55] fallentree, yes [01:56] im leaving this chat and going to change the boot mode setting in https://imgur.com/O2jDJlk to EUFI only. does it seem like a good idea to do this? [01:56] CuChulaind: so I'd advise you go with GPT partitioning. all three drives must have 1MB "bios boot" partition (start at 1MB of each disk). Then add at 500MB on each disk which you'll use as a three-way mirror for /boot. The rest depends on what you want to set up. [01:56] s/add at/add/ [01:57] chris__: Yeah . ya want that installer in UEFI mode such that it sees the Windows partitions . [01:57] fallentree, will give that a whirl [01:57] bashing-om any idea on what UEFI OS actually is? [01:57] CuChulaind: also, if you'll use swap outside of LVM, use a mirror device for swap, don't do multiple swap partitions [01:58] CuChulaind: the reason for that is if one drive fails and you've got swap on it, your server will crash because it lost a 3rd of swap. If you really must, then set up a mirror for it. [01:58] fallentree, this set up is just for me to play with, not for any service, just run some vm's :-) [01:59] chris__: Sure ! [01:59] CuChulaind: it's wise to do it properly so it becomes a habit :) [01:59] :-) [01:59] !uefi | chris__ [01:59] chris__: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware.

[02:12] aewens: no [02:12] drivers/modules [02:12] =different hardware..

[02:17] HOW: do it: install: all packages: that gets: installed: when: ubuntu-mate: is installed? [02:17] GabrielC: Yeah, but I guess if a live CD isn't possible, an install CD would also suffice because that would still be useful down the road. [02:17] GabrielC, you need to very explicitly say 'this is for an offline install [02:17] cya [02:18] GabrielC: Careful, we are all volunteers - we do not have to do this .

Mine seems to be around 100 kB/S [06:02] with the current rate spiking up to 16000 kB/s [06:03] heston: seems low, never used ddrescue though, it's low for dd [06:03] it's on the same pc? [06:03] EriC^^, yeah i just have no idea to know what the bottle neck it [06:03] is* [06:04] yeah it's from sata drive to sata drive but one is in a usb enclosure [06:05] for just pure reads on one drive and only writes on the destination, this is absolutely brutal. This 650 GB drive is going to take a week to mirror [06:05] it'll probably be dead before that [06:06] where did you get the numbers from? [06:06] ddresecue provides them [06:06] aha [06:07] maybe it's trying to read it over and over or something? [06:07] I don't believe it does that on the first pass with the settings i used [06:08] there's definitely an option to do that [06:08] try sudo dd if=/dev/sdx of=/path/to/mounted/hdd bs=4M count=200 status=progress as a test maybe [06:08] make sure you give it the path to the mountpoint not the actual disk name [06:09] why not the disk? [06:09] right good point [06:10] average read is down to bytes [06:10] forgot that youll have to stop ddrescue anyways [06:10] average rate* [06:10] i would yeah..which id rather not [06:10] i dont think this drive is going to make it [06:10] let me try ddrescue here and see how it behaves with my drive [06:11] you used the gddrescue package from ubuntu repos right? [06:11] i did [06:11] what command did you run? [06:11] # ddrescue -f -n /dev/sdX /dev/sdY rescue.log [06:13] current rate 105mb/s from a sata drive to a usb2.0 ext hdd [06:13] thatd be nice :/ [06:13] it's getting less now, 40mb/s [06:14] 100mb/s again seems steady [06:14] it took me an hour to copy 300 Megs [06:14] maybe the usb port is bad or something? [06:14] usb3 [06:14] well the dying drive is throwing errors as we speak [06:14] get it [06:14] hah [06:14] hay [06:15] usb 2 wouldnt be giving me 100 kB/s [06:15] not even usb 1 [06:15] yeah i tried usb2.0 it's giving 100mb/s [06:15] heston: anything in "dmesg" ? [06:15] piles of read errors [06:16] hmm usb3.0 isnt that different, it's 100mb/s too [06:17]
