| Lightman777 | hello | 01:03 |
| guiverc | G'day Lightman777, if you have a Lubuntu support question, please just ask it (try and keep to a single line, be patient as people will answer when they can), chit-chat should be in #lubuntu-offtopic | 01:05 |

| guest12344321 | Hey everyone :) question: | 17:02 |
| guest12344321 | I have a 32gb laptop and a 256 SD card. How would I install the os so it functions from the SSD and make applications install on the SD? | 17:03 |
| guest12344321 | How would I set up manual partitions settings? | 17:03 |
| lubot | <teward001> very painfully. | 17:05 |
| guest12344321 | ? | 17:05 |
| lubot | <teward001> with a LOT of partitions which wuold be a problem for the drives. I mention this because USUALLY packages get installed to different folders across multiple locations | 17:05 |
| guest12344321 | Oof.. sounds hard 😅 no easy way of doing this? | 17:06 |
| lubot | <teward001> nope, not really. | 17:06 |
| lubot | <teward001> usually you have a 'system partition' for stuff to install to | 17:06 |
| lubot | <teward001> and then a separate home partition for your data | 17:06 |
| lubot | <teward001> etc. | 17:06 |
| guest12344321 | Installing it to the SD card is also a bust :/ | 17:07 |
| guest12344321 | It = entire os | 17:08 |
| guest12344321 | 😔 | 17:09 |

| mx6523 | i am using the latest Lubuntu liveCD. Is there a way I can backup all my config changes and reload them next time I load this CD? | 19:29 |
| mx6523 | I did a web search but every result was about using a USB drive | 19:29 |
| === lubuntu is now known as mx6523 | ||
| diogenes_ | mx6523, only if use persistence. | 19:34 |
| mx6523 | thanks, i'm researching that | 19:35 |
| lubot | <teward001> mx6523: persistence has to be done at the time of creation, and persistence is for Live USBs only | 19:35 |
| lubot | <teward001> if you are using a CD/DVD persistence is a no-go for you | 19:35 |
| mx6523 | aww. i think the liveCD should have a way to write and load config changes to a persistent storage | 19:36 |
| mx6523 | well, the main thing is that i want to save my wifi config. | 19:36 |
| lubot | <teward001> it might be possible to load persistence from a USB or such but I don't think a 'hybrid' solution is actually available | 19:36 |
| mx6523 | maybe I can just backup and restore the wifi config file | 19:36 |
| mx6523 | could anyone tell me what to backup to save my wifi settings? | 19:38 |
| diogenes_ | mx6523, another way is edit the iso itself and include all the configs there. | 19:38 |
| lubot | <teward001> which is equally tricky because of the hashsum stuff now implemented | 19:39 |
| lubot | <teward001> the ISOs actually check their sums for validity 😜 | 19:39 |
| lubot | <teward001> but it can be done | 19:39 |
| diogenes_ | mx6523, your wifi connection is here: ls /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ | 19:40 |
| mx6523 | thanks! so i back up and restore that, and my issue is solved? | 19:41 |
| mx6523 | i'm looking at this https://askubuntu.com/questions/46397/how-to-move-wifi-passwords-to-a-new-installation | 19:42 |
| diogenes_ | yes you copy that file and restart the NetworkManager. | 19:43 |

| mx6523 | does anyone have a link to a guide for setting up grub2? i'm searching the web, but it's not becoming clear | 20:52 |
| oerheks | !grub | 20:52 |
| ubottu | 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 | 20:52 |
| mx6523 | thanks! | 20:54 |
| mx6523 | i already installed grub2 using bionicpup linux, but i want to update it using the latest ubuntu release. i'm also trying to get grub-imageboot working | 20:55 |
| mx6523 | okay i got grub installed. now to work on grub-imageboot | 21:03 |
| lubot | Sherry Frisby was added by: Sherry Frisby | 21:04 |
| oerheks | bionicpup linux, .. not supported here, puppy linux | 21:08 |
| oerheks | oh wait, that is the original grub | 21:08 |
| oerheks | and you want to add ubuntu? chainloading? | 21:08 |
| mx6523 | yes, i originally used bionicpup, but i'm working from lubuntu now | 21:14 |
| mx6523 | i got grub-install to work, but update-grub fails, since i'm running from a live CD | 21:14 |
| mx6523 | i am thinking of editing menu.lst since i can't execute grub update.. i don't really know what to do | 21:16 |
| mx6523 | i see info on running update-grub from a liveCD, but it assumes Linux is installed | 21:17 |
| oerheks | how about letting puppy linux control grub? | 21:22 |
| oerheks | boot in it, and run os prober or update-grub | 21:22 |
