TwistedLucidityIt's a Bank Holiday for some, so of course it's horrid.09:50
acheronUKvery horrid http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-4008302509:56
MooDoohowdy all14:12
brobostigonwould it be possible to run an install image in something like virtualbox or qemu etc, and then install to a usb stick?14:42
penguin42brobostigon: That depends14:46
penguin42brobostigon: The emulated hardware in qemu/virtualbox is a bit weird - kind of like a late90s PC with extras, if the installation installs the more normal drivers as well you're OK, if it just installs enough for that then you'll be a bit stuck14:47
brobostigonah i see.14:48
brobostigonis there a better way of doing it in that case?14:48
penguin42well, it's not necessarily a bad way - just saying be a little careful14:49
brobostigonok, ty, :)14:50
penguin42brobostigon: The other thing I'd do is when you configure the qemu/virtualbox I'd give it a virtual USB stick rather than a virtual any other disk, it might have a better chance depending what you're installing14:55
brobostigonah ok, let me try and see what happens.14:57
dogmatic69any idea why my memory card does not show up? in the syslog I can see it detected15:54
dogmatic69May 29 16:53:09 optimus-prime kernel: [788822.093808] scsi 14:0:0:0: Direct-Access     Mass     Storage Device        PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS15:55
penguin4214? !15:55
penguin42hmm15:55
dogmatic69:O15:55
penguin42dogmatic69: Does anything show in /proc/partitions ?15:55
dogmatic69no such file or directory15:56
penguin42?15:56
dogmatic69sorry missed the s...15:56
dogmatic69its empty15:56
penguin42empty? It wont be empty15:57
dogmatic69sorry, I thought it was a folder. its got https://paste.ubuntu.com/24704209/15:58
dogmatic69also from sys log when inserting: mtp-probe: checking bus 3, device 19: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-13"15:58
dogmatic69In nautilus I can see something flash for a split second in the "drive" list. It's like it tried16:00
penguin42dogmatic69: how big is the card?16:01
dogmatic6964GB16:01
dogmatic69I just had it in windows and was working16:01
penguin42hmm none of those look like 64gb16:01
dogmatic69its a dashcam card, might be some half attempt at a file system...16:01
* penguin42 assumes other errors in the dmesg?16:02
dogmatic69its a usb card reader16:02
dogmatic69dmesg https://paste.ubuntu.com/24704246/16:03
penguin42dogmatic69: Were you removing the card and putting it back there or did it do it by itself?16:05
penguin42 'Product:  AutoRUN/Partition'  fun16:05
dogmatic69I was putting it in and out16:07
penguin42dogmatic69: OK, put it in, then leave it a few seconds and get a fresh dmesg and /proc/partitions16:08
dogmatic69that was after a while, its not had anything since that paste16:08
dogmatic69at a glance, partitions looks the same16:09
penguin42hmm16:13
penguin42dogmatic69: Thing is that's saying there's a sdd but I don't see it in /proc/partitions16:14
penguin42dogmatic69: You say this is a USB card reader? What happens if you unplug the reader and reconnect it?16:14
dogmatic69its a sandisk MicroMate16:14
dogmatic69that is what I have been doing16:14
penguin42hmm not sure, it looks OKish from the dmesg16:15
penguin42it's not saying the size of the disk that's a bit odd16:15
dogmatic69maybe the reader is crapped out16:17
dogmatic69Thanks anyway, I will just use a actual card reader on my laptop as that is working.16:21
