| chris2 | hi | 01:12 |
|---|---|---|
| ducasse | good (too early!) morning, everyone | 05:37 |
| Bashing-om | rebooting ... and I be back if all goes as expected. | 06:09 |
| Bashing-om | And all as expected .. so I be back :) | 06:19 |
| ducasse | Bashing-om: \o | 06:20 |
| ducasse | all well with the reboot? | 06:20 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: Yepper .. but I just had to verify a procedure before I instructed to carry on . | 06:22 |
| ducasse | relaxing on the sofa, listening ti tindersticks. considering if i should try to install freebsd on this laptop today... | 06:25 |
| Bashing-om | I m fortunate ( or a glutton for punishment ) as learning ubuntu gives me all I want to do . | 06:26 |
| ducasse | i kind of miss the bsd's, so i'd like at least one machine running some variety of them. | 06:27 |
| ducasse | this one is nearly all intel gear, so should be a good candidate. | 06:28 |
| Bashing-om | use the tools that you use the best :) // Me I have a preference for AMD . I have the thought they have to try harder . | 06:29 |
| ducasse | i used to be a huge amd fan, now with ryzen etc i might become one again :) | 06:30 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: But I must aver that Motorola sure nebt over backwards in it's day . | 06:30 |
| Bashing-om | bent* | 06:31 |
| ducasse | my fileserver is amd, has been ticking on for seven years without fault. about time to replace the mobo + cpu, though. | 06:31 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: Same .. this box is 2007 - sure want an 8 core ryzen system .. last another 10 years ?? | 06:33 |
| ducasse | i want a threadripper, to run containers and vms on :D | 06:34 |
| ducasse | do i *need* one? of course not :) | 06:35 |
| Bashing-om | I just want enough horse power to do what ever pops into my mind to do - for a while too :) | 06:36 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: The CPU I would like to have in the Ryzen line is only about one grand USD :) | 06:37 |
| ducasse | my desktop is two years old now, but has okenty power for me. i7 4790K 4ghz, 32gb ram, 250 + 599gv samsung 850 evos | 06:38 |
| ducasse | *500gb | 06:38 |
| ducasse | *plenty | 06:39 |
| ducasse | damn, this laptop keyboard! | 06:39 |
| alkisg | Where are the biscuits? :D | 06:39 |
| alkisg | /o everyone :) | 06:39 |
| Bashing-om | well ! It will do .. for sure . This ole dual core Athlon ( Abit board ) still flying . | 06:39 |
| Bashing-om | alkisg: Top shelf .- right end .. behind the dough-nuts :) | 06:40 |
| ducasse | alkisg: we're currently discussing the new amd systems, some look quite nice :) | 06:41 |
| alkisg | I've had issues with AMDs in the past, so it's been a very long time since I recommended them... hope things are better now | 06:41 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: Was a big recall on the Ryzen chip set . Think they got most of the bugs worked out now . | 06:42 |
| lotuspsychje | good morning alkisg ducasse Bashing-om EriC^^ | 06:46 |
| alkisg | Heya lotuspsychje | 06:46 |
| ducasse | iknow the usb stuff on the first chipset was horribly broken, among other things, but i haven't heard anything but praise lately | 06:46 |
| EriC^^ | morning lotuspsychje | 06:46 |
| ducasse | i'm no hardware guru, though | 06:46 |
| ducasse | \o lotuspsychje | 06:46 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: got an asus i cant enter in to format | 06:47 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: F12 doesnt get me to boot usb | 06:47 |
| EriC^^ | try esc | 06:47 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: and bios options shows like a path to boot, but cant find usb there | 06:47 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: Good morning . ducasse serving up the coffee and biscuits :) | 06:47 |
| lotuspsychje | lets c | 06:48 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: disable any fastboot stuff | 06:48 |
| alkisg | I've seen Esc, F1, F2, F8, F10, F11 and F12 for boot menus/usb boots | 06:48 |
| ducasse | every mfg uses something different | 06:48 |
| lotuspsychje | there's an option to add boot option, but no usb i can choose | 06:49 |
| lotuspsychje | shows only windows boot manager | 06:49 |
| lotuspsychje | fastboot and launch csm are disabled | 06:49 |
| ducasse | don't understand why they didn't standardize on something with uefi | 06:49 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: which asus model | 06:50 |
| lotuspsychje | when i choose 'add new boot option, i can set a path, or choose PCI(1F...) | 06:50 |
| ducasse | lotuspsychje: copy the grub efi file to the windows' path | 06:50 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: F552C asus notebook pc | 06:51 |
| lotuspsychje | american megatrends 204 BIOS | 06:52 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: apparently enabling csm should do the trick | 06:52 |
| lotuspsychje | lets c | 06:52 |
| EriC^^ | but i think you will be installing in legacy mode not uefi | 06:52 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: which usb are you trying to boot? | 06:53 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: cant enable 'launch csm' | 06:54 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: sandisk w10 stick works, used on other systems lately | 06:54 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: did you disable secureboot | 06:55 |
| lotuspsychje | yes | 06:55 |
| lotuspsychje | does it need a reboot for that? | 06:55 |
| EriC^^ | i dont think so | 06:56 |
| EriC^^ | try enabling the admin password | 06:56 |
| lotuspsychje | weird i can choose nothing like usb, cdrom | 06:56 |
| alkisg | lotuspsychje: so with the stick connected, if you go to system setup (not boot menu, the real firmware setup, F2 or what is it), you don't see it as a boot option? | 06:57 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: you mean the blue screen uefi from windows? | 06:57 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: it might be unable to boot from usb | 06:58 |
| lotuspsychje | ESC worked as boot enter as EriC^^ said, but no usb there, just setup & windows boot manager | 06:58 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: is windows installed on it? | 06:58 |
| lotuspsychje | yes, buts its corrupted at boot blue screen after 3min | 06:58 |
| lotuspsychje | hence the format need | 06:58 |
| lotuspsychje | when i choose boot options, does nothing | 06:59 |
| EriC^^ | i would do ducasse 's trick, remove the hdd put grub.efi instead of efi/microsoft/boot/bootmgfw.efi (after backing it up) | 06:59 |
| ducasse | has it got an efi shell? | 06:59 |
| lotuspsychje | ducasse: yeah saw that option, launch efi shell from filesystem device? | 06:59 |
| lotuspsychje | try that from bios? | 07:00 |
| lotuspsychje | shellx64.efi | 07:00 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:01 |
| lotuspsychje | same blue screen as before, your device needs repair: | 07:02 |
| lotuspsychje | enter to try again, F8 for boot options, esc for uefi firmware | 07:03 |
| lotuspsychje | i think i need a path to usb to ad as boot option | 07:04 |
| lotuspsychje | ahhh | 07:05 |
| lotuspsychje | it worked! | 07:05 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: enable CSM did the trick, needed the reboot afterall | 07:05 |
| lotuspsychje | now all boot options show at ESC | 07:06 |
| lotuspsychje | yess :p | 07:06 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: your bank account number? lol | 07:07 |
| ducasse | lotuspsychje: pay him in ethereum :-P | 07:08 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 07:08 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: you accept bitcoins? | 07:08 |
| lordievader | Good morning | 07:11 |
| ducasse | hi lordievader | 07:11 |
| ducasse | all good today? | 07:11 |
| lotuspsychje | hey lordievader | 07:11 |
| lordievader | Hey ducasse lotuspsychje | 07:13 |
| lordievader | Doing good here, how are you guys? | 07:13 |
| lotuspsychje | great here :p | 07:15 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: maybe it just needed the disable secure boot? | 07:18 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: think csm did the trick | 07:21 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: can i wipe all partitions at setup? | 07:21 |
| lotuspsychje | wont vanish uefi stuff? | 07:21 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 07:24 |
| EriC^^ | well leave th efi partition if you want | 07:24 |
| ducasse | i'm examining the wonders of rEFInd these days, a much better boot manager than the alternatives... | 07:25 |
| EriC^^ | but i think if windows 10 booted earlier then it could boot in uefi mode and install the uefi stuff again | 07:25 |
| lotuspsychje | oh its 1 big 1TB hd | 07:26 |
| lotuspsychje | installing :p | 07:26 |
| lotuspsychje | god i what i hate uefi.. | 07:27 |
| lotuspsychje | hmmm an error occured to install on partition grrr | 07:32 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: Hardware error or software error type ?? | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah seems like that hd isnt healthy enymore hmmz | 07:35 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: Did you check smart already? | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | no | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | ill try override with ubuntu later | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | if that fails, hd out | 07:40 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: That is the first place to check a drive's health. | 07:40 |
| lotuspsychje | might explain the blue screen error | 07:41 |
| lordievader | lotuspsychje: `sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX` | 07:42 |
| lotuspsychje | lordievader: im in win setup, ill try live xenial in a bit | 07:43 |
| lotuspsychje | ubuntu setup launched | 07:45 |

| lotuspsychje | ubuntu setup asked to continue in uefi mode | 07:52 |
| lotuspsychje | now waiting for partition screen | 07:52 |
| ducasse | one cool thing i found in rEFInd is the ability to launch things like efi binary partitioning tools | 07:58 |
| ducasse | very handy | 07:58 |
| lotuspsychje | ubuntu partition freeze here | 07:59 |
| alkisg | efi binary partitioning tools? Like which one? | 08:05 |
| lotuspsychje | lemme try with csm off | 08:09 |
| ducasse | alkisg: seems it comes with one, haven't tested it yet | 08:10 |
| alkisg | Ah, nice | 08:10 |
| lotuspsychje | bbl | 08:17 |
| ducasse | it also comes with rescue tools for apple hw, as it was originally developed as a mac boot manager | 08:20 |
| lotuspsychje | ubuntu installing now bbl work guys | 08:38 |
| lotuspsychje | tnx 4 the support | 08:38 |
