| pbox | hello, hope everyone is OK! I am having trouble with the lubuntu installer - I can boot fine from the USB but when I try to partition the hard drives the installer crashes | 16:19 |
|---|---|---|
| pbox | I wonder if there's a way of starting it from the command line and see if there are error messages along the way - or other forms of troubleshooting | 16:20 |
| pbox | image checksum matches and the initial filesystem tests do not return any errors | 16:21 |
| LimeOn | you have problem to create the "/", "/home" partitions or you cant give space to linux from your hard drive? | 16:33 |
| pbox | the installer allows me to select replace partition | 16:34 |
| pbox | but once i do it it crashes | 16:34 |
| LimeOn | you have something else in that partition? | 16:34 |
| LimeOn | like windows for example | 16:34 |
| pbox | yes, it's a dual boot machine | 16:34 |
| pbox | but im replacing a previous lubuntu artition | 16:35 |
| pbox | partition | 16:35 |
| LimeOn | oh, i see | 16:35 |
| pbox | which boots fine | 16:35 |
| LimeOn | have you tried to delete those and re-make them? | 16:35 |
| LimeOn | i mean, dont relplace, but make them from "free space" | 16:35 |
| LimeOn | dont replace* | 16:35 |
| LimeOn | something like: delete old lubuntu partitions and then create them again | 16:36 |
| pbox | I thought about doing it with fdisk but decided that i should check before deleting the working system | 16:36 |
| pbox | ok | 16:36 |
| LimeOn | yes, thats the problem | 16:36 |
| LimeOn | you will delete the working one during the process | 16:36 |
| pbox | anyways, I will give it a try | 16:36 |
| LimeOn | i remember do what you want and dont have problem | 16:36 |
| LimeOn | i mean, re-install lubuntu | 16:37 |
| LimeOn | but you could try that | 16:37 |
| pbox | yes I find it strainge as well, thats why I was wondering if I could check the error logs | 16:37 |
| pbox | if there are any | 16:37 |
| LimeOn | i really dont know that, im sorry | 16:37 |
| pbox | or if it crashes silently. | 16:37 |
| pbox | no problem | 16:38 |
| LimeOn | i suggest you to search in askubuntu | 16:42 |
| LimeOn | maybe the answer is there | 16:42 |
| pbox | thanks | 16:43 |

| MrCollins | Hello! Can anyone point me at a link for setting up lubuntu without a gui, but easy to configure BIND or DNS server for my home network? | 23:29 |
| MrCollins | Or perhaps an ISO that has a streamlined linux os that is setup with BIND or another DNS server? | 23:29 |
| MrCollins | I guess I should state my goal. I have about 7 or 8 old boxes sitting around, and I wanted to make use of a few of them. | 23:31 |
| tomreyn | MrCollins: you could install ubuntu-server on them, then the software you want. | 23:36 |
| tomreyn | that's basically like any ubuntu flavour just without the graphical interface | 23:37 |
| MrCollins | ok 10-4. | 23:38 |
| MrCollins | does lubuntu havea server or its just ubuntu itself? | 23:38 |
| tomreyn | network management works differently on the server than on the desktop by default (can be changed, if needed) | 23:38 |
| tomreyn | there's just ubuntu-server, which also has an irc channel here | 23:39 |
| MrCollins | OK. Thank you for your help. Its going to be on older hardware but should be sufficient for my local home network needs. | 23:39 |
| MrCollins | just DNS serv, thats all I want it to do. | 23:39 |
