[01:15] <RTJimmyC> Hi, I'm trying to figure out a permission issue on a .sh, I get permission denied, though I appear to seem to have it set correctly
[01:16] <RTJimmyC> prime_user@Xubuntu-E5450:~/scripts-pc$ ls -l
[01:16] <RTJimmyC> -rwxr-xrwx  1 prime_user prime_user    1443 Dec  2  2021 RNscript.sh
[01:16] <RTJimmyC> prime_user@Xubuntu-E5450:~/scripts-pc$ ./RNscript.sh
[01:16] <RTJimmyC> ./RNscript.sh: 61: exec: /home/prime_user/scripts-pc/lib/linux-x86_64/RNscript: Permission denied
[01:41] <ikwyl6> RTJimmyC: looks like the file: !/scripts-pc/lib/linux-x86_64/RNscript you don't have permission to use...
[01:45] <RTJimmyC> Doesn't the last rwx mean that all users have execute privileges?
[01:57] <ikwyl6> RTJimmyC: that is your script. but it must be trying to use the file: /home/prime_user/scripts-pc/lib/linux-x86_64/RNscript that is in another dir...
[02:07] <RTJimmyC> TY! I didn't realize there was a second file, works now
[02:54] <xu-irc1w> hi - just did a clean/minimal install of xubuntu 22.04.2 but system doesn't boot up
[02:54] <xu-irc1w> following error:
[02:54] <xu-irc1w> Gave up waiting for root file system device.
[02:54] <xu-irc1w> says something about a UUID not existing
[02:55] <xu-irc1w> any help would be appreciated
[03:01] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Did you manually set your partitions and fail to set '/' for root ?
[03:01] <xu-irc1w> i didn't manually set anything, just did automatic install in minimal mode
[03:01] <xu-irc1w> via USB
[03:01] <xu-irc1w> installed on a RAID-0 setup (the array works fine)
[03:02] <xu-irc1w> any details you need let me know
[03:03] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Next then is how are you booting - CSm or UEFI ? the way you boot the installer is how the system will boot.
[03:03] <xu-irc1w> i have no idea
[03:03] <xu-irc1w> i'll check
[03:04] <xu-irc1w> so go into my BIOS and look at what mode it's booting up with? and change it to the other one and see if it works?
[03:05] <xu-irc1w> BIOS seems to be in UEFI boot mode, from what i can see
[03:06] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Yeah = that is one option . be aware I have limited experiemne with raid - best I recall the boot code must reside outside of the raid array.
[03:06] <Bashing-om> !raid | xu-irc1w 
[03:06] <ubottu> xu-irc1w: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[03:08] <xu-irc1w> i mean, i already installed
[03:08] <xu-irc1w> so i think the RAID is working fine
[03:09] <xu-irc1w> it's basic software RAID, Intel
[03:09] <xu-irc1w> i've used it before with other OSes, works
[03:09] <xu-irc1w> i only say this because i'm not sure how those links will help ubottu
[03:10] <xu-irc1w> oh it's a bot
[03:13] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: What I would do here is check the UUIDs in /etc/fstab file that match ' sudo blkid -c /dev/null '.
[03:13] <xu-irc1w> can you be more descriptive? i am relatively inexperienced with linux
[03:14] <xu-irc1w> you're asking me to compare UUIDs in 2 different areas, correct?
[03:15] <xu-irc1w> how do i check directories from shell?
[03:16] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: sure ! ... boot up the insatller in "try ubuntu mode' activate a terminal > run thge blkid command - then in the file manager open the /etc/fstab file.
[03:16] <xu-irc1w> so i have to plug in the USB key again?
[03:16] <xu-irc1w> and boot from it?
[03:17] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: are you prently in the shell of the problematic install ?
[03:17] <xu-irc1w> it goes into shell
[03:17] <xu-irc1w> after it fails to boot
[03:17] <xu-irc1w> yes
[03:17] <xu-irc1w> i just don't know linux commands
[03:19] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Not a problem - we all started to learn from nothing at some point :) ... from the current shell what results  ' ls -al /etc/fstab ' ?
[03:19] <xu-irc1w> i did "blkid" command and it says some stuff
[03:20] <xu-irc1w> -rw-r--r--   1    0 /etc/fstab
[03:23] <xu-irc1w> ls -al /etc/fstab
[03:23] <xu-irc1w> shows
[03:23] <xu-irc1w> -rw-r--r--   1    0 /etc/fstab
[03:26] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Great - you do have a shell vice a grub prompt - are you aware that a minimal instal has no GUI ?
[03:26] <xu-irc1w> it doesn't?
[03:26] <xu-irc1w> oh
[03:26] <xu-irc1w> lol
[03:26] <xu-irc1w> so no desktop and stuff?
[03:27] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Nope - ya get to choose what you want to install from that minmal :)
[03:28] <xu-irc1w> perhaps i should do a fresh install
[03:28] <xu-irc1w> full install
[03:28] <xu-irc1w> and go from there
[03:28] <xu-irc1w> because i am not good at linux so i can use GUI
[03:29] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: That depends on what you want - I too prefer to build from a minimal install. Much less bloat and faster system.
[03:29] <xu-irc1w> i see
[03:30] <xu-irc1w> i am only running a server though
[03:30] <xu-irc1w> with a good system
[03:30] <xu-irc1w> so it's fine it marginally slower
[03:30] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: ^ such however - oe ust know what they want :(
[03:31] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: In a server - a gui is another attack vector ! Hense not generaly recommneded to run a GUI .
[03:32] <Bashing-om> one must know*
[03:32] <xu-irc1w> k
[03:32] <xu-irc1w> but it is just a server for fun with friends
[03:32] <xu-irc1w> i am not advanced enough to do a 24/7 server lol
[03:33] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: But someday you will be - experience and practice will make it so.
[03:34] <xu-irc1w> well i don't think i will ever be advanced enough, i have too many other hobbies
[03:34] <xu-irc1w> and linux is complicated
[03:38] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: only as complicated as you choose to make it - choose your spin and ubuntu is almoast "sailor proof" :) // right now I do not understand how with " waiting for root file system device." you can even boot the kernel :(
[03:39] <xu-irc1w> i am doing a new install
[03:39] <xu-irc1w> full install
[03:39] <xu-irc1w> i hope it works
[03:40] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: well - we are here if ya need :D
[03:43] <xu-irc1w> same problem, doesn't boot
[03:43] <xu-irc1w> ls -al /etc/fstab
[03:43] <xu-irc1w> shows the same thing as before
[03:44] <xu-irc1w> so what not?
[03:44] <xu-irc1w> now*
[03:44] <xu-irc1w> it says
[03:44] <xu-irc1w> -rw-r--r--   1    0 /etc/fstab
[03:45] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: do all the UUID's agree with what 'blkid' report ?
[03:45] <xu-irc1w> i don't know how to check that
[03:45] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: ' less /etc/fstabv ' to see the file's contents.
[03:46] <Bashing-om> typo !
[03:46] <Bashing-om> ' less /etc/fstab '
[03:46] <xu-irc1w> you want me to type in 'blkid' ?
[03:47] <xu-irc1w> i did that
[03:47] <xu-irc1w> it shows me a UUID code
[03:48] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: I swapped out from a mechanical keyboard - with this keyboard a lot of fat fingering going on :(
[03:50] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Yeah - ya need to make sure that ALL the UUIDs exactly match what the blkid shows for UUIDs . exactly!
[03:51] <xu-irc1w> how do i check the other UUIDs?
[03:51] <xu-irc1w> there is a UUID on the shell screen already
[03:51] <xu-irc1w> that one?
[03:52] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Does A Wimdows instal play into this also ? where Windows is holding a partition captive ?
[03:52] <xu-irc1w> i do not have windows on it
[03:52] <xu-irc1w> just linux install fresh'
[03:53] <xu-irc1w> when i try to boot it says
[03:54] <xu-irc1w> Gave up waiting for root file system device.
[03:54] <xu-irc1w> ALERT! UUID=blablabla does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
[03:54] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: pastebin the results and I will check // I got ecperience :) ... run ' sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . pass me back the resulting locatig URL.
[03:55] <xu-irc1w> i don't know how to use that
[03:55] <xu-irc1w> sorry
[03:55] <xu-irc1w> just tell me how to change the UUID
[03:56] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: No problem in that shell run command ' sudo blkid | nc termbin.com  9999 ' copy and paste the command for best results.
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> i want to learn though
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> tell me how to do this myself
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> i want to check it myself :)
[03:57] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: We 1st make sure there is sometbing that needs changing :P
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> tell me how to check
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> i want to learn
[03:57] <xu-irc1w> i don't want pastebin because i don't learn
[04:00] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Me - I open a text editor and cupy the UUID as shown from ' less /etc/fstab  ' then for each UUID I copy from ' sudo blkid' ad compare the results :D
[04:00] <Bashing-om> ad/and*
[04:00] <xu-irc1w> command "less" not found
[04:01] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Wow - that is minimal !~ ..  ok try with ' cat /etc/fstab ' 
[04:02] <xu-irc1w> this is full install not minimal
[04:02] <xu-irc1w> i did "cat /etc/fstab"
[04:02] <xu-irc1w> nothing happened
[04:04] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: ' ls -al /etc/fstab ' ? so we know we have  shell interfase !
[04:04] <xu-irc1w> -rw-r--r--   1    0 /etc/fstab
[04:08] <xu-irc1w> that's what it says
[04:10] <xu-irc1w> i have to go soon
[04:10] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Then proofs we have a true shell - what now shows ' which less ' ? ( we got a path issue ?)
[04:11] <xu-irc1w> command: "which less"
[04:11] <xu-irc1w> result: nothing happens
[04:12] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: plot thickens - how about ' ls -al /usr/bin/less ' ?
[04:13] <xu-irc1w> no such file or directory
[04:15] <xu-irc1w> i have to go very soon
[04:15] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Blows me away that "less" is not in a default install - how about ls -al /usr/bin/cat ' ? 
[04:16] <xu-irc1w> it exists
[04:16] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: then we can look from ' cat /etc/fstab ' .
[04:17] <xu-irc1w> just tell me what to type in but plz hurry
[04:17] <xu-irc1w> i have to go soon
[04:17] <xu-irc1w> i will be back later though, another day
[04:17] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: I did ! >> cat /etc/fstab :D
[04:17] <xu-irc1w> i do that
[04:17] <xu-irc1w> nothing happens
[04:18] <xu-irc1w> command: "cat /etc/fstab"
[04:18] <xu-irc1w> result: nothing happens
[04:19] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Path issue ? what about ' /usr/bin/cat /etc/fstab ' ?
[04:19] <xu-irc1w> "usr/bin/cat/etc/fstab" ?
[04:19] <xu-irc1w> or
[04:19] <xu-irc1w> "usr/bin/cat /etc/fstab" ?
[04:20] <xu-irc1w> i did the second one
[04:20] <xu-irc1w> nothing happens
[04:20] <Bashing-om> the latter - a space betwee /cet/ and /etc/
[04:21] <xu-irc1w> thank you so much for your help but i unfortunately have to go for now
[04:21] <Bashing-om> xu-irc1w: Makes absoltely no sense to me ! the tool exists and the file exists !
[04:21] <xu-irc1w> it's OK, thank you!
[04:21] <xu-irc1w> i might come back later and try again
[04:21] <xu-irc1w> take care
[04:21] <Bashing-om> laters !

[13:36] <christian> hello, I have a problem in Terminals with xubuntu 22.04. When I mark a command until end of line an paste the result, the command is not executed. I have to type ENTER explicitely. How can I recover the former behaviour, where the command was executed without typing ENTER? Thanks for any advice!
[19:21] <nzxtnzxt> hello fellow linux users
