MJCD | Hey | 11:19 |
volodya | hi, i have gotten myself a new ssd, and i've installed xubuntu on it, my old installation is on the other drive, and i wanted to move relevant bits from it, but i am unable to mount it. my guess is that it has to do with the label 'xubuntu-vg' that is applied to the drive somewhere, but i cannot figure out how to change that label (i don't want to "play around" fearing that i will lose something) | 11:19 |
MJCD | wow that's a long message | 11:19 |
MJCD | volodya, labels dont really mean anything, they're just metadata | 11:19 |
MJCD | just check out /dev/ | 11:20 |
volodya | i doubt that in this case. seeing that /dev/mapper uses them to populate the drives | 11:20 |
MJCD | it will be like sda[...] | 11:20 |
volodya | MJCD, did you actually read what i wrote? | 11:21 |
volodya | ok... perhaps i wasn't clear enough | 11:21 |
Unit193 | Sounds more likely that you used LVM and need to use kpartx to activate it. | 11:21 |
volodya | Unit193, i don't think that would work, since it will try to activate it using the label 'xubuntu--vg-root' | 11:22 |
volodya | and that label is already taken | 11:23 |
Unit193 | It named them differently, but last time I messed with kpartx to activate, it was on CentOS. | 11:24 |
Unit193 | (did /dev/mapper/vg=Volnamep[1-3]) | 11:24 |
volodya | ok, i'm going to play around | 11:29 |
Unit193 | (Don't you just want to lvrename?) | 11:30 |
volodya | i cannot figure out, i may need dmsetup rename | 11:31 |
MJCD | anyways I just came because I have a problem. I go to github, I download a repo as a zip and xubuntu displays it as a zip with a padlock on it | 12:16 |
MJCD | and the archive manager fails to open or work with it | 12:16 |
MJCD | works fine in fileroller | 12:16 |
MJCD | I may file an issue for that | 12:18 |
MJCD | since it should be able to open a basic zip lol | 12:19 |
MJCD | a simpler question | 12:19 |
MJCD | I just want to enable gui login for root | 12:19 |
MJCD | and yes I know its a terrible idea | 12:20 |
MJCD | etc etc | 12:20 |
MJCD | ahh I just tried as Other.. from the login screen after doing sudo passwd | 12:36 |
MJCD | it is not a happy camper | 12:36 |
MJCD | oh, it appears to work past that error though... | 12:37 |
MJCD | oh well, appears solved enough for now to just have a screen with nothing but root terminals haha | 12:43 |
MJCD | but I hope some contributor saw this | 12:44 |
MJCD | peace | 12:44 |
