Kilosi had a major problem today15:14
pavlushkaKilos: you had, so you solved it by now!15:15
Kilosmade that usb boot disk with 18.04.1 pavlushka   but it wont boot on a HP pavilion15:15
Kilosits a bug in the grub file15:15
pavlushkaso?15:15
Kilosi even went to #ubuntu and asked for help 15:15
pavlushkaand then15:16
Kilosyou have to edit /etc/default/grub but then reboot before it works15:16
Kilosand it goes backto starting only to boot15:16
pavlushkaoo15:17
Kilosthen one guy told me to boot with space bar held down and do the edit15:17
Kilosi didnt try that, my son was going to so i slept all afternoon15:17
pavlushkaKilos: ha ha ha, that's a nice fix15:18
Kilosi will know the outcome tomrrow15:18
Kiloslol15:18
Kiloshttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/152117315:19
Kilosthat is te bug15:19
Kilosthe trick is to fix it in the boot stick15:19
Kilosi need to find a way to make an install stick from my laptops system15:20
Kilosis there no fork to systemback yet15:20
pavlushkaKilos: what was the change/trick?15:22
Kilosto edit the boot stick15:26
pavlushkaKilos: setting boot/grub parameter by adding pci=nomsi, pci=noaer?15:27
Kilosbut now they found if they leave the laptop on for a while and then boot from it it works15:27
Kilosyes15:27
Kilosthose commands15:27
Kilosits easy to do in a working system but can you do it in the install media15:28
KilosHP pavilion is the problem laptop15:28
Kilosif  it cannot be done i will install 18.04 on the stick and she can use it like that15:29
Kilosanother one thats scared of losing their windows lol15:29
Kilosi need coffeeeeee15:30
pavlushkaKilos: for install media you have to make the edit treating the USB just an USB, might need root privilege to edit the /boot files15:30
pavlushkaKilos: or you can apply the change and then update grub and then copy the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file to somewhere else from the live env15:36
pavlushkaKilos: and use it as JUST USB and replace the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file with that preserved one15:38
Kiloshmm...15:41
Kilosi will experiment15:41
Kilosbut the lady has her windows to keep her busy so no rush15:42
Kilosshe is busy learning time and attendance with ian15:44
Kilosall that software is on windows so no change soon15:45
Kiloswb pavlushka  16:57
pavlushkaty Kilos :)16:57
Kilosafter adding that nomsi and noar i cant do update-grub16:58
Kilosit sayd no path to  canonical /cow16:58
Kiloslol16:58
pavlushkaKilos: in the live env?16:59
Kilosand there is no grub.cfg file yet16:59
Kilosyes on the flash drive16:59
Kilosseems the .cfg get made when you install 16:59
Kilosdont worry lad, i will look more tomorrow17:00
Kilosall this thinking will make me want to sleep again17:01
pavlushkaKilos: I am not experienced with this setup, so #ubuntu may be better :)17:02
pavlushkameaning 18.04 live env17:02
Kiloswell so far they got me to edit grub but you cant run update-grub so will chat to them tomorrow. ty for your help17:03
* pavlushka still using 16.04 live17:03
Kiloswhat is env17:03
pavlushkaKilos: environment17:03
Kilosoh17:03
Kilosif i wait they will most likely put the bug fix in 18.04.217:04
pavlushkaKilos: that would be a long wait17:05
Kilosthere must be mmillions of HP pavilions out there17:05
Kiloslol17:05
Kilosi will install 18.04 onto a flash drive for her17:05
pavlushkaKilos: its a bug from 16.04, that you are experiencing still17:05
Kilosthen its installed and updated upgraded17:06
Kilosyes17:06
Kilosand i can edit and run update-grub17:07
pavlushkaKilos: which one is not booting, the laptop or the USB?17:07
pavlushkaI meant the system of the laptop or the system of the usb on that laptop17:08
Kilosthe usb man, the install media17:08
Kilosdont worry lad17:09
pavlushkaKilos: so when you put the usb on that laptop, it's not booting, otherwise the usb is booting on other machines?17:09
