| [13:45] <lubot> <Arnab> Hello | |
| [13:46] <guiverc> @Arnab, if you have a Lubuntu support question, please just ask it, and be patient waiting for a response, people will when they can. | |
| [13:46] <lubot> <Arnab> Trying to install lubuntu 19.10..but getting the following error! | |

| [13:49] <guiverc> @Arnab, did you use the "Check disk for defects" option, it's likely your write to install media failed. (mentioned in this page - https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/1/1.3/installation.html) | |
| [13:50] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @lubuntu_bot checked the disk. No error! | |
| [13:53] <dafadar> Hi | |
| [13:53] <guiverc> If your machine (during install boot) is still running, a `dmesg |grep squashfs` should produce only a copyright type notice.. you'll see squashfs errors if it's what I was thinking of.. | |
| [14:00] <bazztux> Hey guys | |
| [14:00] <bazztux> What's Ubuntu? | |

| [14:01] <ubottu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | |
| [14:01] <bazztux> Thanks | |
| [14:02] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @guiverc 'dmesg |grep squashfs' returns a version with the name of the person! | |
| [14:03] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/3kPikwe.jpg | |
| [14:05] <guiverc> that is the expected line (I referred to as copyright type notice), your issue is not squashfs; i was wrong sorry. | |
| [14:05] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @guiverc okay! Thanks. | |
| [14:06] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Zorin Os and Linux Mint seems to install absolutely fine..but this issue i am facing only while installing Lubuntu | |
| [14:07] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/udbmRdH.jpg This is the partition option i get when trying to install | |
| [14:37] <santimir[m]> Is it lubuntu manual page on the system out of the box? I cant find it | |

| [15:20] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Rudra Nice Promo 😃 | |
| [15:20] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Thanks :) | |
| [15:21] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Can't seem to install it to enjoy the perks of Lubuntu ☹️ | |
| [15:21] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Ah, I guess we'll need an installation guide | |
| [15:22] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/1/1.3/installation.html | |
| [15:22] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Hope it works out | |
| [15:22] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> :) | |
| [15:23] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> That would be great! But I think, the issue I am facing is something odd! | |
| [15:24] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> What? | |
| [15:25] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> What's the issue? | |
| [15:25] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x960) https://i.imgur.com/JwTnxbX.jpg I am getting this! 😶😐 | |
| [15:28] <lubot> <TheLimeRunner> Have you verified the ISO and tried a different install medium (IE: used a different usb key)? | |
| [15:29] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> I know another guy who faced the issue and it was an issue relating to downloads. Bittorrent should help since it verifies while downloading | |
| [15:29] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> I am doing that now! Downloading via torrent and will be create a live usb on a different pendrive | |
| [15:29] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Will update you about the progress | |
| [15:29] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Thanks | |
| [15:32] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Rudra Music of the promo video is catchy...may i know which one did you use? | |
| [15:32] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Had one lying around, sharing | |
| [15:36] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay | |
| [15:39] <santimir[m]> maybe useful https://forum.manjaro.org/t/boost-python-error-in-job-unpackfs-while-installing-18-0-4/85666 | |

| [16:13] <lubot> <kc2bez> @arnabdafadar [<reply to image>], You will need to unmount the mmc device before starting the installer. | |
| === BrianG61UK__ is now known as BrianG61UK | |
| [16:26] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez [You will need to unmount the mmc device before starting the installer.], Tried installing Lubuntu 16.04 and it installed fine. But want to try 19.10. can you please list the steps to unmount the mmc? I am a bit noob in linux 😐 | |
| [16:28] <lubot> <kc2bez> no problem. I will list out some steps. if you need clarification please let me know. | |
| [16:28] <lubot> <kc2bez> step 1 reboot into a live session. | |
| [16:29] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okqy | |
| [16:29] <lubot> <kc2bez> step 2 once booted, open kde partition manager. It can be found in the menu under system tools. | |
| [16:30] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay | |
| [16:30] <lubot> <kc2bez> step 3 once kde partition manager opens you should see devices on the left pane. select the mmc device. | |
| [16:31] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Btw..the bootable usb i have created is NTFS formatted. That shouldn't be the issue right? | |
| [16:32] <lubot> <kc2bez> what did you use to write the USB? | |
| [16:34] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Rufus... selected GPT partition scheme and NTFS format.... … Since i am loading this ubuntu in a BayTrail based processor, i have to manually copy a bootia32.efi file inside the /EFI/BOOT folder in the live usb | |
| [16:35] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @arnabdafadar [Rufus... selected GPT partition scheme and NTFS format.... … Since i am loading th …], With this exact method, i have successfully installed ZORIN OS and Linux Mint...no issues there | |
| [16:35] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> But lubuntu is giving me the problem | |
| [16:35] <lubot> <kc2bez> ok. it may not matter. let's keep going with unmounting the mmc device. | |
| [16:35] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Yup | |
| [16:36] <lubot> <kc2bez> step 4 on the right pane you should see the partition select it and right click. one of the options should be unmount | |
| [16:38] <lubot> <kc2bez> step 5 once it is unmounted restart the installer. | |
| [16:39] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Give me 1 min.. following your steps | |
| [16:40] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x960) https://i.imgur.com/pSsRXzd.jpg I am supposed to select the one which is selected on the left... correct? | |
| [16:42] <lubot> <kc2bez> You have it selected correct. now right click on the partitions in the right hand side and select unmount. | |
| [16:43] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x960) https://i.imgur.com/b33bjiU.jpg Unmounted the one selected in blue inside the pink circle | |
| [16:43] <lubot> <kc2bez> I would unmount the other 2 if you have the option | |
| [16:44] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Those two are not mounted i guess...the unmount option is greyed out | |
| [16:44] <lubot> <kc2bez> ok. | |
| [16:45] <lubot> <kc2bez> try the installer now to see if the erase option is there. | |
| [16:45] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Ok.. trying | |
| [16:46] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x960) https://i.imgur.com/M5Q9PIQ.jpg Now it shows the familiar options 😁😁 | |
| [16:46] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Giving it a try.. hoping it will run | |
| [16:46] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Thanks a ton! Much appreciated 🙂🙂 | |
| [16:47] <lubot> <kc2bez> sounds good. please let us know. | |
| [16:47] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Sure! Will do | |
| [16:47] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Oops! | |
| [16:47] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Same thing ☹️ | |
| [16:47] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/ePmfjM2.jpg | |
| [16:48] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Opening kde partition manager, i can see the mmc partitions mounted again | |
| [16:48] <lubot> <kc2bez> you may want to try burning the iso with balena etcher. | |
| [16:49] <lubot> <kc2bez> yeah the installer mounted them | |
| [16:49] <lubot> <kc2bez> since it didn't finish correctly it never unmounted | |
| [16:49] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Balena will not do the job... because i need the live usb to be in GPT format for UEFI boot | |
| [16:50] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Balena does not give me the option to select GPT or MBR | |
| [16:50] <lubot> <kc2bez> even with Lubuntu? | |
| [16:50] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez [even with Lubuntu?], Sorry? I didn't get you | |
| [16:51] <lubot> <kc2bez> I think it may boot correctly but perhaps I am wrong. | |
| [16:51] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Lubuntu iso is GPT formatted or MBR? | |
| [16:52] <lubot> <kc2bez> it should handle either EFI or bios legacy boot. | |
| [16:53] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Let me give it a try...other distros burned with balena...never worked on the system i used...let me try with lubuntu...will update you in 5 mins | |
| [16:53] <toumbo> I'm a Greek user who just installed 19.10 an I seek a way to add greek layout | |
| [16:53] <lubot> <kc2bez> ok thanks @arnabdafadar | |

| [17:02] <lubot> <kc2bez> @Βασίλης Τουμπακάρης [So... … I'm a Greek user who just installed 19.10 and I seek a way to add greek la …], I am not sure the best way to do that. Hopefully someone else does. | |
| [17:03] <lubot> <Βασίλης Τουμπακάρης> Maybe there are multiple ways, interesting | |
| [17:05] <lubot> <Βασίλης Τουμπακάρης> On previous lxde versions, I used a panel widget for this | |
| [17:05] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Updated the logo for the video: Updated video: https://youtu.be/r1KSf9b0elE | |
| [17:05] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> According to what @HMollerCl said | |
| [17:24] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez well... created a live media using balena...but i need to copy bootia32.efi file inside /EFI/BOOT in the pendrive...and the folder inside the pendrive is read only (thats what balena does) | |
| [17:25] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Try Rufus | |
| [17:25] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Chown and chmod is not working to remove the read only attributes..and hence can not boot from that | |
| [17:25] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> What about dd? | |
| [17:25] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> I was using rufus only..but @kc2bez suggested to try with balena once..but it seems rufus is the way i have to go | |
| [17:26] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Rufus should be used in such cases | |
| [17:26] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> My installation error for lubuntu is still there! 😬😬 | |
| [17:27] <lubot> <kc2bez> Very strange indeed. I don't have a good answer unfortunately. | |
| [17:28] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Anything else i should try? | |
| [17:29] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Try with CSM in your BIOS | |
| [17:30] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> No csm option in bios | |
| [17:30] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Its an old system | |
| [17:30] <lubot> <Rudra Bali> Select Legacy Boot | |
| [17:44] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Well...let me try a different approach.. | |
| [17:46] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> I will try and install Lubuntu 19.10 in my newer system with latest AMD processor and AsRock motherboard....if it installs correctly..then my old system is the culprit.... otherwise i have no idea 😶 | |
| [17:46] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Rudra will keep you posted! | |
| [17:47] <lubot> <kc2bez> Ok thanks @arnabdafadar | |
| [18:06] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Well.. | |
| [18:08] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Rudra posted the error. | |
| [18:08] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 1280x960) https://i.imgur.com/a3M9J8l.jpg The same issue persists in my newer system as well. Well...now i have no idea 😬 | |
| [18:09] <lubot> <kc2bez> @arnabdafadar out of curiosity, where did you download from? | |
| [18:09] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Lubuntu website | |
| [18:09] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Torrent download | |
| [18:10] <lubot> <kc2bez> which site exactly? | |
| [18:10] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 606x1280) https://i.imgur.com/UQDS2d1.jpg | |
| [18:10] <lubot> <Βασίλης Τουμπακάρης> .me or .net? | |
| [18:11] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> https://lubuntu.me/downloads/ | |
| [18:11] <lubot> <kc2bez> ok good, just wanted to make sure. | |
| [18:11] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay | |
| [18:11] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Should i try with 20.04? | |
| [18:12] <lubot> <kc2bez> I am not sure. Maybe it is an issue with the USB itself? Do you have another one to try? | |
| [18:12] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> I have 4 USBs... tried with two | |
| [18:12] <lubot> <kc2bez> 20.04 wouldn't be a bad test either. | |
| [18:12] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay downloading 20.04 and creating a fresh usb | |
| [18:13] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> This error has snatched away my sleep!! 😣 | |
| [18:13] <lubot> <kc2bez> Sorry for that. | |
| [18:14] <lubot> <kc2bez> I am at a loss. usually squashfs errors are due to a bad download or disk. | |
| [18:15] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Let me try with this 20.04 and a new usb..will keep posted | |
| [18:15] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Whats squashfs exactly? | |
| [18:15] <lubot> <kc2bez> Ok thanks. | |
| [18:15] <lubot> <kc2bez> that is the compressed image that gets transferred to your Target drive. | |
| [18:16] <lubot> <kc2bez> squash=compressed fs=file system | |
| [18:16] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @Βασίλης Τουμπακάρης [.me or .net?], Which version did you install? And did you face any errors? Fresh install? | |
| [18:17] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez [squash=compressed fs=file system], Oh! Got it..thanks... lets give 20.04 a try | |
| [18:17] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Any suggestions to clean the usb before making it bootable? | |
| [18:18] <lubot> <kc2bez> a format can't hurt. usually the writing tool overwrites the drive. | |
| [18:19] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Yaa..will format it via cmd and try it | |
| [18:20] <lubot> <kc2bez> I don't really use Windows so I can't help too much with that. I usually use `dd` from the command line. I understand that isn't the most straight forward method. | |
| [18:20] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay no issues. Will clean it up and give it a try | |
| [18:21] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Btw..thanks for all the help till now 🙂 | |
| [18:24] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> (Photo, 606x1280) https://i.imgur.com/s9ssUgb.jpg @kc2bez do you think this might be of any help? | |
| [18:27] <lubot> <kc2bez> I guess you could try that but I would not think that was the issue here. | |
| [18:27] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Okay | |
| [18:27] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Lets see | |
| [19:06] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Hey.. good news I guess! 20.04 did not give that error and got past that step..still installing ...keeping my fingers crossed! | |
| [19:07] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> One thing i did different is that i formatted the bootable usb in fat32 instead of NTFS i was doing earlier... | |
| [19:07] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Will try 19.10 with fat32 tomorrow and will let you know | |
| [19:07] <kc2bez> Ok thanks. | |
| [19:07] <kc2bez> I appreciate the update. | |
| [19:08] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Thanks once again 🙂 | |
| [19:08] <kc2bez> You are most welcome. | |
| [19:10] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> @kc2bez Btw..just curious..when will 20.04 stable be released? | |
| [19:11] <kc2bez> The end of April. | |
| [19:11] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Great! Thanks | |
| [19:11] <lubot> <arnabdafadar> Bye | |
| [19:11] <kc2bez> On or around the 23rd. | |
| [19:12] <kc2bez> Ok take care. | |
