xu-irc66wi tried installing LMD but it took forever so i closed(scan)00:00
gnrpxu-irc66w: Can you maybe make a paste of the whole thing in the terminal? Or a screenshot?00:00
xu-irc66wit is what it is00:00
gnrpxu-irc66w: Try maybe once `sudo apt install --fix-broken`00:01
xu-irc66wWell then its just nvrending repeating message00:02
gnrpwhich is...?00:02
xu-irc66whttps://dpaste.com/949754B6V00:03
gnrpok00:04
gnrprestart00:04
xu-irc66wi cant do that either, nor shut down00:04
gnrpthere is apparently some process still running (something you said you closed during installation) that is still holding the lock, and probably waiting for some input from you. You can restart (or kill that process, but restarting might be easier). And then you have to do the `sudo apt install --fix-broken`00:04
gnrphu? Why not?00:04
xu-irc20wsudo apt install --fix-broken?00:07
gnrpyep00:07

vallottiHello!  I've been trying to make a startup usb.  I downloaded the .iso image from xubuntu.org  I've used dd, mkusb, and startup disk creator, but the usb never boots.  Reading from parted shows a boot flag, but the reading from fdisk does not.  Yes, my BIOS is set to boot from an external source.14:25
gnrpvallotti: where did you dd the iso to?14:25
gnrpto a partition or to the whole usb drive?14:26
vallottiThe whole drive, so the would be sdb.  Should it have been sdbx?  I notice that, once finished, dd leaves three partitions.14:35
gnrpno, this is correct14:39
gnrpwhat kind of computer are you trying to boot from? Isit more recent? Is maybe Secure Boot activated, or only UEFI boot?14:40
vallottiI've a Sony VAIO, about eleven years old, now.  It's turning into a dinosaur!14:41
gnrp(or only legacy boot? I actuall yodn't know what you would need)14:41
gnrpdo you maybe have secure boot on that computer?14:42
vallottiI don't believe so.  This will be my third or fourth install of xubuntu, and I'm not doing anything differently than I've done in the past.14:47
gnrpah, it works when it is installed from the hard drive?14:50
vallottiWell, I do install xubuntu from the usb.  The problem is that the stick I just made doesn't seem to have a partition from which to boot.  What further confounds is that parted sees a bootable partition, but fdisk does not.  The computer agrees with fdisk.  It's also possible that my computer refuses to boot from a gpt partition table.14:59
vallottiI believe that this is the problem.  As a test, I made a successful startup disk with another distro, arch.  The arch disk has an msdos partition table.  Is there any way to write the dd command so that the usb stick has an msdos partition table?  I've read the man page, but I'm sure there's something I don't understand.15:32
xu-irc20whello gnrp did u have möjlighet to help me today :]21:11
gnrpxu-irc20w: Maybe ;)21:18
