| [01:47] <ianorlin> yes you can check md5 | |
| [03:55] <ForTheWin> lubuntu, lxle, and xubuntu all failed to boot after installation, so i gave up and installed mint. I kept getting can't find UUID. Anyone know why? | |
| [04:05] <ianorlin> can't find uuid? | |
| [04:50] <holstein> ForTheWin: no.. and the installers should actually be all quite similar.. so, i wouldnt assume that its something with the *buntu's | |
| [04:50] <holstein> ForTheWin: i would check the md5 sums, and maybe test my hard drive.. or, just use and enjoy mint since its working.. | |
| [04:52] <ForTheWin> holstein: yeah, i think im done tinkering for now, just gonna live with mint xfce. thank you | |
| [04:52] <ForTheWin> ianorlin: yeah x wouldnt run, it dumps me to initramfs | |
| [04:53] <holstein> ForTheWin: those are quite different.. and if "x wouldnt run" i would think the iso is bad | |
| [04:53] <holstein> !md5 | |
| [04:53] <ubottu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | |
| [04:53] <holstein> or, the installation media | |
| [04:57] <ForTheWin> i did the check disc thing in the grub menu | |
| [04:57] <ForTheWin> of the livesession | |
| [04:58] <holstein> ForTheWin: "x wouldnt start" means you cant get to the live session, correct? | |
| [04:58] <holstein> so you ran a disk integrity check from the grub menu? before the live session? | |
| [05:00] <ForTheWin> no i got to the live session fine | |
| [05:00] <holstein> ForTheWin: what do you mean by "x wouldnt run" then? | |
| [05:00] <ForTheWin> x wouldnt start after installation success | |
| [05:00] <holstein> you mean, after installation failed? | |
| [05:00] <ForTheWin> installation finished without a hitch | |
| [05:01] <ForTheWin> but when i reboot, x wouldnt start | |
| [05:01] <holstein> i call that a hitch | |
| [05:01] <holstein> anyways.. at that point, thats when i test the hard drive | |
| [05:01] <holstein> could be, the drive is bad/failing.. and you sqeaked a mint install on it somehow | |
| [05:01] <ForTheWin> i think youre right | |
| [05:01] <ForTheWin> how do i test my hd | |
| [05:02] <holstein> i use gsmartcontrol.. it'll be installable from the repos on the live CD's or mint | |
| [05:02] <holstein> but, you want to run it from a live CD | |
| [05:02] <ForTheWin> right because i need the hd unmounted, correct? | |
| [05:02] <holstein> i would want that.. | |
| [05:03] <ForTheWin> ok thank you i will lookfor gsmartcontrol | |

| [10:04] <wub_wub> Hi, I downloaded the alternate installer because I wanted to install lubuntu on a low end machine, before installing it on the real pc I decided to try it out in virtualbox, however the installer keeps crashing at the configure software part. Is this a known bug or something on my end? | |
| [10:07] <testdr> wub_wub: check the download iso - md5sum - last time i tried the alternate-lubuntu-iso (was version 14.04.0) it worked without flaws on a low-end-laptop with only 256mb-memory. | |
| [10:11] <wub_wub> testdr, yup it's correct, also the check disc for defects option runs fine. Could it be that this is an issue specific to my hardware/VM and that it won't happen on the machine I intend to install it on? | |
| [10:12] <wub_wub> I'm debating atm whether to try it out or just re-install windows xp which works | |
| [10:15] <testdr> wub_wub: if you run the lubuntu-iso in qemu, there should be no problem. But i suspect you are using windows-vm? May be there are some settings not available. As far i know, there could be a problem with pxe (it not available) and there is a low-mem-limit around at 100-200MB memory. The first install should be without internet-updates | |
| [10:15] <testdr> if pxe is not available - that could be the fault | |
| [10:16] <wub_wub> No I'm using xubuntu/virtualbox to try and install it, xubuntu and ubuntu installs fine with the default settings and 1gb of ram assigned. | |
| [10:16] <testdr> wub_wub: then poste the qemu-start-commandline for the iso | |
| [10:17] <wub_wub> As soon as I figure out how to do it, sure. | |
| [10:18] <testdr> wub_wub: it should be something like: qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -vga std -m 1G -cdrom NameOfLubuntuISO | |
| [10:19] <wub_wub> Yeah... you know what, I'll just go with XP - I don't really feel like debugging this and don't want to waste any more of your time. Thank you! | |
