| metbsd | how do i prepare bootable usb stick with 20.10 iso? | 13:22 |
|---|---|---|
| metbsd | xubuntu | 13:22 |
| Maik | metbsd: same as you did with the server iso | 13:33 |
| Maik | metbsd: what are you running now, ubuntu, windows or mac? | 13:34 |
| metbsd | win | 13:35 |
| metbsd | fail to boot though | 13:35 |
| metbsd | no more display after linux loading | 13:36 |
| Maik | what did you use, Rufus? | 13:36 |
| metbsd | etcher | 13:36 |
| Maik | and did you verify the iso? | 13:36 |
| Maik | also, what are the system specs | 13:37 |
| Maik | learn to provide as much info you can when asking for support | 13:37 |
| metbsd | verify failed | 13:38 |
| metbsd | 20.04 iso | 13:38 |
| metbsd | it's intel core 2 duo | 13:38 |
| metbsd | 9400 | 13:38 |
| metbsd | really old laptop | 13:38 |
| metbsd | the same usb can boot and install another newer laptop | 13:38 |
| metbsd | but fail to boot in this old laptop | 13:39 |
| Maik | 32bit? | 13:39 |
| Maik | or 64? | 13:39 |
| metbsd | 64bit | 13:39 |
| Maik | how much RAM | 13:39 |
| metbsd | 4g ram 320g hd | 13:39 |
| Maik | if the verification failed then you need to download another iso | 13:40 |
| metbsd | alienware | 13:40 |
| Maik | nVidia, AMD graphics card in it i guess? | 13:40 |
| metbsd | amd sv670 | 13:40 |
| Maik | maybe that's your problem | 13:41 |
| metbsd | can i use text only installation | 13:41 |
| Maik | dunno | 13:41 |
| metbsd | problem is it doesn't give me menu to choose installation types | 13:42 |
| Maik | you kinda asked the same question about the server iso last night and it was answered | 13:42 |
| metbsd | ok | 13:42 |
| metbsd | thanks | 13:42 |
| Maik | also you said 20.04 but asked help with 20.10 which is confusing | 13:42 |
| Maik | if the sha256 checksum failed then doznload a new iso | 13:43 |
| metbsd | 20.04 failed, will try 20.10 now | 13:44 |
| Maik | doznload/download | 13:44 |
| Maik | ok, have fun and good luck, gotta run | 13:44 |
| metbsd | thanks bye | 13:44 |
| metbsd | Maik, it's my Chinese Lunar new year. So I wish you a healthy and successful year of Ox. | 13:45 |
| metbsd | i'm chinese | 13:45 |
| Maik | thank you very much. Wishing you the same. :) | 13:48 |

| Arseniev | hi. I installed xubuntu 20.04 with Lvm encrpoted partition. I let rhe installer choose the partitions just to know what happens. | 16:53 |
| Arseniev | it created a primary /boot/efi. | 16:53 |
| Arseniev | It also created an extended partition with two partitions inside (/boot and vgxubuntu) | 16:55 |
| Arseniev | is this right? I can not see the swap partition. | 16:56 |
| Arseniev | by the way the vgxubuntu partition indicates that the filesystem is lvm2 pv. Is it some kind of encrypted ext4? | 16:56 |
| gnrp | Arseniev: I cannot tell you since I didn't install a ubuntu system for some time, but seems about right | 16:58 |
| gnrp | /boot/efi for the bootloader, /boot for loading the encrypted stuff, and then one encrypted partition | 16:58 |
| gnrp | you would probably like to add another partition for separating /home and / | 16:58 |
| Arseniev | ok, now I understand | 16:59 |
| Arseniev | wbat about the swap? | 16:59 |
| Arseniev | ai always had a partition dedicated to it. | 16:59 |
| gnrp | Arseniev: Depends. I personally don't use it on my machines anymore | 17:00 |
| gnrp | it depends a lot on how you use your computer and how it is equipped whether tou need one | 17:00 |
| gnrp | I would go so far as saying that modern desktops don't require a swap partition anymore. Lots of people might object, though | 17:00 |
| Maik | Arseniev: *buntu creates a swap file, this is since 18.04. No swap partition is needed anymore. | 17:03 |
| gnrp | Maik: Ah, good to know | 17:04 |
| gnrp | makes more sense anyway rather than fixing it into the partitioning | 17:04 |
