| [13:24] <rharish> anyone knows how to fix the grub after updating to 14.04 from 13.10 ? | |
| [13:24] <rharish> I was following this http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/getting.html | |
| [13:24] <lordievader> rharish: What is the problem with Grub? | |
| [13:24] <rharish> not that | |
| [13:24] <rharish> lordievader: I guess it's broken. get the grub rescue | |
| [13:24] <rharish> can't boot into anything | |
| [13:25] <rharish> https://askubuntu.com/questions/449680/upgrading-from-13-10-to-14-04-broke-grub/454068#454068 | |
| [13:25] <lordievader> rharish: Hmm, and that happened after the upgrade? | |
| === steel_afk is now known as steel | |
| [13:25] <rharish> yes, so agonizing :( | |
| [13:26] <rharish> any clues ? | |
| [13:27] <lordievader> Chrooting from a live-cd/usb and running "update-grub2". | |
| [13:28] <rharish> I used update-grub | |
| [13:28] <rharish> it generated a grub.cfg | |
| [13:28] <lordievader> rharish: Did it find kernels? | |
| [13:28] <rharish> idk that | |
| [13:28] <rharish> how do u check ? | |
| [13:28] <lordievader> rharish: Run it again and check ;) | |
| [13:30] <rharish> lordievader: checking it | |
| [13:34] <rharish> lordievader: there's a /boot/grub/grub.cfg file already present | |
| [13:34] <rharish> should I go ahead with update-grub2 ?? | |
| [13:36] <lordievader> rharish: Yes, that file is then updated. | |
| [13:36] <rharish> lordievader: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7510112/ | |
| [13:36] <rharish> that's what I get | |
| [13:37] <lordievader> Should be fine. Although the EFI might cause problems. Perhaps that is your issue? | |
| [13:38] <rharish> exactly | |
| [13:38] <rharish> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7510117/ | |
| [13:38] <rharish> how to get arround that ? | |
| [13:39] <lordievader> Whish I could tell you that. I have no experience with (U)EFI. | |
| [13:39] <rharish> oh no :( | |
| [13:40] <rharish> thanks anyways | |
| [13:42] <rharish> does anyone else have any clue on that ^^ ? | |
| === kubuntu is now known as Guest57693 | |
| [14:12] <Walex> rharish: GRUB2 is diabolical. | |
| [14:13] <rharish> uhm, update-grub ? | |
| [14:13] <Walex> rharish: yes, but you need to boot into your root partition to do that right. | |
| [14:14] <Walex> rharish: that page and other just tell you how to do that. | |
| [14:14] <rharish> can you help me with it ? | |
| [14:14] <Walex> rharish: yesm but what problem specifically happens to you? | |
| [14:15] <rharish> so far, I've chrooted and ran update-grub | |
| [14:15] <Walex> rharish: because your paste shows no errors. | |
| [14:15] <Walex> rharish: the 'uopdate-grub2' workjed fine. | |
| [14:16] <rharish> yes, now when I run grub-install (for reinstalling) I get the error saying that grub can't find efi directory | |
| [14:16] <Walex> rharish: I don't understand what you are trying to do. | |
| [14:17] <rharish> i'm trying to follow the steps listed here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/449680/upgrading-from-13-10-to-14-04-broke-grub | |
| [14:18] <rharish> we are trying to reinstall the grub right ? | |
| [14:19] <rharish> Walex: step 9 | |
| === sign is now known as systemd | |
| [14:20] <Walex> rharish: sorry I can't follow. I can't understand what your current situation is and what you are trying to achieve. Any of those steps makes sense in a specific case. | |
| [14:26] <rharish> Walex: okay. Let me start over. I tried upgrading from kubuntu 13.10 to 14.04. The packages were downloaded and installed successfully and I was prompted to reboot. On rebooting, I get the grub-rescue screen. I can't boot into any of my OS(kubuntu or Windows). I then tried boot-repair but even that didn't fix the issue so I was referring to that link which | |
| [14:26] <rharish> suggests booting into a live cd and chrooting to reinstall the grub. That's what I've been trying to do. I was able to mount my drives and was even able to run update-grub which generated a grub.cfg file in /boot/grub. Now I must reinstall according to the answer in the link(the one with 25 votes), for which I use "grub-install" which gives the following | |
| [14:26] <rharish> error http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7510117/. how do I go about this( grub-install) ? | |
| [14:27] <rharish> That's the issue now | |
| [14:27] <rharish> Walex: hope you can help me | |
| [14:29] <rharish> afk | |
| [14:31] <Walex> check whether 'ls /sys/firmware/efi/vars/' lists something | |
| [14:31] <Walex> check whether 'modprobe efivars' succeeds | |
| [14:31] <Walex> you have an EFI boot problem not a GRUB problem (yet). | |
| [14:35] <Walex> you must mount the EFI partition as '/boot/efi' | |

| [16:17] <sanjeb> Hi all :) | |
| [16:20] <sanjeb> Can someone tell me where I can download a windows (sorry for mensioning this name) for my virual box? Im afraid of downloading it from any torrent so that it wouldnt have a virus/worm... etc in it | |
| [16:22] <BluesKaj> sanjeb, we can't advise you on illegal activities here, pls search the internet | |
| [16:22] <BluesKaj> or buy a copy of windows | |
| [16:22] <sanjeb> @BlueKaj knew that but still I had to try :P | |
| [16:23] <BluesKaj> you'll receive the same answer from any OS support chats on freenode | |
| [16:25] <sanjeb> ok, laters peeps, have a nice day/eve | |
| [16:25] <sanjeb> :) | |

| [16:35] <rharish> sorry had to go out, was urgent. | |
| [17:25] <lolmaus> Hi! I'm on Kubuntu 14.04, trying to get an app hook into my console. The app has added its lines to `.bash_profile`. The problem is that i don't have access to the app until i do `source ~/.bash_profile` every time i open Konsole. I've tried moving the lines to `~/.profile`, still no luck. | |
| [17:27] <lordievader> lolmaus: You are trying to run an console application when you open the Konsole? | |
| [17:28] <lolmaus> lordievader: yes. The console application makes itself available as `$ nvm` via the lines it had added to `~/.bash_profile`. | |
| [17:28] <lolmaus> But until i do `source ~/.bash_profile`, `$ nvm` says "No command 'nvm' found". | |
| [17:30] <lolmaus> On the other hand, when i tried to add the lines into `~/.bashrc`, it started working for newly opened Konsole windows. I complained to NVM dev, but he said that `.bashrc` is supposed to be executed for non-login shells and what i did was wrong. | |
| [17:30] <lordievader> Hmm, adding tmux here to my .zshrc it opens tmux when opening Konsole. | |
| [17:31] <lordievader> NVM doesn't open a gui, does it? | |
| [17:32] <lolmaus> lordievader: nope, it's a console app. | |
| === ian_ is now known as IsaacTBest | |
| [17:40] <lordievader> !info nvm | |
| [17:40] <ubottu> Package nvm does not exist in trusty | |
| [17:41] <lolmaus> lordievader: https://github.com/creationix/nvm | |
| [17:41] <lolmaus> lordievader: the question is not about NVM, but about which dotfiles are executed when Konsole is started. | |
| [17:42] <lordievader> Does nvm provide a shell or something? | |
| [17:42] <lordievader> Else you can just tell konsole to start nvm instead of bash. | |
| [17:49] <lolmaus> lordievader: nvm's goal is to dynamically provide certain commands into the console (node and npm). It allows you to switch between different node/npm environments. Thus, nvm is useless without bash. | |
| [17:51] <lordievader> Is it a service? | |
| === devenne is now known as Guest30435 | |
| === devenne_ is now known as devenne | |
| [18:04] <lolmaus> lordievader: no. BTW, here's the line from `.bash_profile`: | |
| [18:04] <lolmaus> [[ -s "/home/lolmaus/.nvm/nvm.sh" ]] && source "$HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm | |
| [18:08] <lordievader> Could you pastebin that script? | |
| === ian_ is now known as IsaacTBeast | |
| === steel_afk is now known as steel | |
| [18:32] <lolmaus> lordievader: which one? My `.bash_profile`? PS Please highlight me so that i don't miss your answers. | |
| [18:33] <lordievader> lolmaus: $HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh (I didn't highlight since this was the only active conversation) | |
| [18:34] <lolmaus> lordievader: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/blob/master/nvm.sh | |
| [18:37] <lordievader> lolmaus: Hmm, it might just fix your problem. Try putting a link to the script in ~/.kde/env. Then upon login the script should be ran. | |
| [18:39] <lolmaus> lordievader: are you sure? The script is supposed to be invoked with this: [[ -s "/home/lolmaus/.nvm/nvm.sh" ]] && source "$HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm | |
| [18:41] <lordievader> Jup, the script sets env variables. Scripts in ~/.kde/env set env variables kde wide. | |
| [18:43] * lordievader time to watch a movie | |
| [18:49] <lolmaus> lordievader: it didn't work. Maybe a reboot is required? | |

| [19:10] <brejoc> hi @all! i've got a question regarding the re-installation of kubuntu on my latop. the ssd has, next to boot and swap, a btrfs partition that is the root volume with home as a subvolume. would it be possible to re-install kubuntu with the official installer and keep the home-subvolume? | |
| [19:14] <BluesKaj> brejoc, subvolume=separate /home partition ? | |
| [19:15] <brejoc> BluesKaj: no it's on the same partition. | |

| === Guest80540 is now known as tomte | |
| [19:20] <tomte> hi | |
| [19:20] <BluesKaj> then you need to backup your home dir data to some other media , the create a / and separate /home partition..then install kubuntu to the / partition and copy the backed up data to the new /home partition. Next time you want to install a new release you just need to install to / and /home will remain unaffected. | |
| [19:20] <BluesKaj> brejoc,^ | |
| [19:20] <tomte> I got an erlderly laptop with a 32gb ssd and tried to install ubuntu on it | |
| [19:21] <tomte> but it doesn't recognize the harddisk at all | |
| [19:21] <BluesKaj> tomte, how old ? | |
| [19:22] <tomte> 7 years maybe? acer 5104wlmi | |
| [19:23] <tomte> it some sandisk ssd (winxp and win installed on the ssd without any issues) | |
| [19:25] <tomte> any ideas where to start looking? | |
| [19:25] <BluesKaj> tomte, do you mean the kubuntu installer doesn't see the ssd ? | |
| [19:25] <brejoc> okay, i thought so. thanks, BluesKaj! | |
| [19:26] <tomte> BluesKaj: yes, the installer can't see it. I can't find it in the live system as well (partition tool e.g.) | |
| [19:29] <BluesKaj> tomte, in the live media cd or usb open a terminal and type mount to see if the ssd is listed | |
| [19:30] <tomte> doesn't look like to me: http://nopaste.info/ff9f33003b.html | |
| [19:36] <BluesKaj> tomte, ok what does df -h give? | |
| [19:39] <tomte> BluesKaj: did a couple more: http://nopaste.info/83c6dbd1ab.html | |
| [19:46] <BluesKaj> tomte, sudo blkid | |
| [19:47] <tomte> BluesKaj: /dev/loop0: TYPE="squashfs" | |
| [19:47] <tomte> /dev/sr1: LABEL="Kubuntu 14.04 LTS amd64" TYPE="iso9660" | |
| [19:48] <BluesKaj> that's the cdrom , /dev/sr1 | |
| [19:48] <tomte> yep, there is no sight of a harddisk | |
| [19:48] <BluesKaj> tomte, suggest you ask the gurus at ##linux | |
| [19:49] <BluesKaj> I'd be interested to see what they suggest | |
| [19:51] <tomte> ok, I'll give it a try | |
| [19:59] <tomte> and got the obvious - "don't use ubuntu" | |
| [20:00] <BluesKaj> tomte, there are few smartasses ther, just ignore those remarks | |
| [20:03] <tomte> I guess | |
| [20:06] <BluesKaj> unfortunately the ppl who would know aren't around | |
| [20:07] <tomte> I have to restart and see if there are some options in the BIOS I can change, try different boot parameters | |
| [20:08] <tomte> I just wanted to take a shortcut and not use gentoo... | |
