| xangua | Sudo apt update && sudo apt install rar unrar p7zip-full | 03:16 |
| miltos | <xangua> thanks but it does not work...maybe it's because I run lubuntu on my odroid xu4... | 03:25 |
| xangua | Ooh... | 03:27 |

| jomar | anyone? | 14:08 |
| jomar | i need help | 14:08 |
| jomar | how to create a right partition | 14:09 |
| hateball | jomar: If you follow the documentation on the wiki it should be quite clear | 14:12 |
| hateball | jomar: And if this is a fresh install, the install wizard will create partitions for you. No need to do it manually unless you have specific requirements | 14:12 |
| jomar | where? | 14:12 |
| hateball | !fixgrub | In case you have less than 10 lines scrollback jomar | 14:13 |
| ubottu | In case you have less than 10 lines scrollback jomar: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 14:13 |
| jomar | i use old laptop | 14:13 |
| hateball | liveboot, install&run boot-repair, be happy | 14:13 |
| jomar | and i dont know how to setup | 14:14 |
| hateball | What do you need to know? Just let the installer choose for you | 14:14 |
| jomar | i always stock at bootloader | 14:14 |
| jomar | i tried erase disk and install lubuntu but same problem bootloader failed | 14:15 |
| jomar | i tried lvm too | 14:15 |
| hateball | jomar: are you using UEFI or BIOS? | 14:17 |
| jomar | im using bios | 14:17 |
| jomar | im using old laptop sony vaios | 14:18 |
| hateball | jomar: Do you get any error message? | 14:19 |
| jomar | failed to install bootloader | 14:19 |
| jomar | im stock on it | 14:19 |
| jomar | its says choose another partition (idk) it's asking me to change partion or something else | 14:20 |
| jomar | choose another partition to save bootloader something like that | 14:21 |
| hateball | well the bootloader goes into the MBR of your disk, but /boot resides in the filesystem | 14:21 |
| hateball | jomar: Where do you choose to install the bootloader then? | 14:21 |
| hateball | If your laptop drive is /dev/sda, you should install grub to that | 14:21 |
| jomar | yes i do and i put / in mount point | 14:22 |
| jomar | i create swap linux too | 14:22 |
| hateball | jomar: So you are doing manual partitions? Why not let the installer wizard just do it for you? | 14:23 |
| jomar | yes i tried that method too | 14:24 |
| jomar | same problem bootloader failed to install | 14:24 |
| jomar | if you have some time we can both use team viewer so you can see what the problem is ( if you just have time ) | 14:25 |
| hateball | jomar: is it 17.04 ? | 14:25 |
| jomar | 16.10 | 14:25 |
| hateball | jomar: I am at work so I dont really have time | 14:25 |
| jomar | its okay no problem | 14:25 |
| hateball | jomar: 16.10 will be unsupported soon, so use 16.04 or 17.04 | 14:25 |
| jomar | awww | 14:26 |
| jomar | seriously? | 14:26 |
| hateball | !lts | 14:26 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions are supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Xenial (Xenial Xerus 16.04.1). Ubuntu !flavors may have different support durations, check their release notes for information. | 14:26 |
| hateball | jomar: LTS is supported for 5 years, and the other versions are only supported for 9 months, then you need to upgrade to the next release | 14:26 |
| hateball | jomar: So it would be better for you to install 17.04 if you want the latest supported. Maybe that magically works also | 14:27 |
| jomar | any direct download link? | 14:28 |
| jomar | okay okay thank you for helping | 14:32 |
| jomar | is there any way to contact you if there's a problem installing the new release version? | 14:33 |
| hateball | jomar: Well this channel is always around | 14:33 |
| jomar | email , gamail or facebook | 14:33 |
| hateball | Heh, no. | 14:33 |
| hateball | jomar: Also you can ask in #ubuntu too, there are more people there... even some that use Lubuntu | 14:34 |
| jomar | oh i see | 14:34 |
| jomar | Grub installation failed again | 14:34 |
| jomar | the "grub-pc" package failed to install to /target/. without the grub boot loade, the installed s ystem will not boot | 14:36 |
| jomar | i think the "Grub" is the problem here because it says "the installed system will not boot | 14:37 |
| hateball | well yes, you need grub installed to be able to boot your system | 14:37 |
| jomar | how to install it? | 14:38 |
| hateball | I dont quite understand why it would fail to install tho, unless using some exotic UEFI setup | 14:38 |
| hateball | jomar: well the installer should "just work" | 14:38 |
| jomar | i use bios | 14:38 |
