NB100 - trying to boot Ubuntu Netbook Remix

Hi all

I have a Toshiba NB100 with Windows XP and I'm trying to install UNR, I tried to boot from a USB USB Kingston Datatravel or of a LiteOn CD/DVD external and it does not start. I changed the BIOS settings to boot from USB and cd/dvd and nothing happened yet.
Any idea?

Thank you

Ivan

Hello!

I know on this laptop it s possible to boot from a USB stick so I m wondering what it doesn t work.

However, perhaps that the USB drive is not bootable, or they are some missing files to boot from it. I m not an expert of Ubuntu, but maybe this Wiki article is useful to you:
https://wiki.Ubuntu.com/UNR

Good luck!

Good bye

  • Enjoyed the time on Ubuntu Netbook Remix OS

    The time of reading, that I got with the system was great. Delays were expected with it being a SATA device and no flash. But everything was good and quickly loaded applications. The home router connection was simple and easy to follow. I wasn't expecting to be able to use this "remix" so quickly and achieve internet access with an email client, shortly behind.

    Thanks for sharing your experience with this new Netbook and the installed operating system.

    Greetings

  • Has anyone installed Ubuntu netbook remix 9.04

    Last weekend, I downloaded and installed the beta version of UNR 9.04 on a USB key. Had a quick play with it on the Toshiba and it seemed to work OK in addition to being unable to scroll with the touchpad, I think it's related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315882.

    I wanted to install the new version until I was happy that everything would work OK. Has anyone tried to install 9.04?

    Hello

    I didn't test a new version 9.04 but why you n t try just the newest pilot of the synaptic touchpad
    I mean its worth to try an I doubt a new version of the touchpad driver would cause serious problems
    So it of certainly worth a try

  • NB100 will not boot from the XP CD in the external USB CD/DVD drive

    I try to install XP Home in my NB100
    The netbook still refuses to boot from the XP CD. It's just not more
    Returns the current operating system (Ubuntu) or give the error "Could not find NTLDR" dreaded.
    And yet - it will boot from an Ubuntu Live CD disk perfectly fine, AND
    If I connect this external hard drive on my computer Windows 7, (another Toshiba
    Portable satellite) that the machine starts quite successfully since the XP CD
    in the same external drive!

    Can anyone throw any light on what is happening on Earth on?

    Hello

    There are various reasons why this error message:
    In most cases this error because the laptop is trying to boot from a HARD drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly. Maybe the drive is not bootable or not compatible.

    It would also be possible that some sectors on the HARD disk, HARD drive failures are corrupt or BIOS is damaged. NTLDR error messages may also appear if the master boot record is damaged.

    In your case I recommend that you format the first HARD drive before booting from the hard drive CD7DVD external using Win XP CD.

    By the way: you must add SATA driver to CD Win XP using nLite.
    The SATA driver is placed on the European driver Toshiba page in the Intel Storage Manager

    The SATA driver is needed to recognize the HDD by Win XP!

  • Failure of dual booting Ubuntu with Windows 8 on the Satellite P845t

    I tried in vain to dual boot Ubuntu 13.10 to a new Satellite from Toshiba with Windows 8.1. The laptop has UEFI. I used the two live DVD and live USB, and I tried with SecureBoot both active and disabled.

    Whenever I have the same failure. J
    UST before the next GRUB, the error message screen appears flashes briefly on the screen "error: variable 'root' is not defined". The GRUB screen appears. I tried Trying-out Installation and Installation and whenever once I have selected one of these options, then, the screen turns off and remains empty. When you use a DVD, the DVD still Purring for several seconds, before going to death.

    Out of curiosity I tried to install OpenSUSE 12.3 in the same way (with SecureBoot both enabled and disabled in turn, etc.) and stalls from installation to a similar point every time, which leads me to think that it is something to do with how UEFI is installed on the laptop.

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P845T about 3 months with the HARD drive replaced with a SSD.
    It came with pre-installed Windows 8, and I've upgraded to 8.1 Windows last week, shortly before trying to install Ubuntu.

    Curiously, the Windows desktop 8.1 has a watermark in the bottom right that says: "SecureBoot is not configured correctly", but that may not be not relevant for this query, such as Google search, that suggests that many people have this watermark even if SecureBoot is properly configured. And activating/deactivating the SecureBoot makes no difference for the message.

    Any help would be welcome, as I'd like to get this double-started with Ubuntu.

    Thank you!

  • Missing operating systems after trying to install Ubuntu

    I have a dv6 7010 WE

    I used to have Windows 7 x 64. I tried to install a dual boot Ubuntu, but if it worked I would not write this.

    I tried to install Ubuntu with a live CD. I've been running Ubuntu, I thought it was over install and I restarted the computer. When he came back he said "Missing Operating System". The live CD was not in when he did this, and then I put it back on and restarted and he returned to Ubuntu and offered to install again. I didn't install it and I restarted just once again (error). Yet once he came with "Missing Operating System". I restarted again, but press the ESC key and went to the start menu. I've sailed around, trying to make a boot recovery and try to do a system restore, but none of them worked.

    Now when I put the Ubuntu CD in I don't you Ubuntu, but the same screen lack of operating system

    I tried to get a download of Windows 7 and reinstall it on another drive, but I didn't do well do things and don't want to take the risk even once.

    I cannot enter in a command window and can do stuff with it, but I have no idea what to do at this point.

    I'm stuck and I really really need help. I really really want to buy a new computer. My computer did not come with a Windows 7 installation disc.

    Help please.

    Please do not answer. I just ordered recovery through Staples discs.

    To anyone else reading this, I suggest you just buy the recovery disc for your computer.

    The recovery discs also got rid of all the stuff of Ubuntu

  • Received error BSOD, ran Diagnostics, got the error code 2000-0146, tried to boot from different HARD drive, got the same stop error message

    So my friend gave me his computer dell laptop. The thing would boot normally for a few days until he would give me a blue screen of death with the "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" message constantly to not even upward. I ran the diagnostics and got the error code 2000-0146. What I've read, this code error means that the HARD drive is bad and must be replaced. So, to make sure that it's the hard drive, tried to boot from an old hard drive, I got around the installation by USB and windows gave me the same stop error message. May - so that means it's a motherboard problem?

    No, it isn't - unless the operating system was installed on this drive AND the system in question, that it won't work as a bootable drive.

    Unplug the system, remove or disconnect the battery and hold the power for 30 seconds approximately.  Turn on and re-run the diagnostic tests - if the same error appears again, the drive is bad.  Replace it.

    I don't want to lose the docs and the photo I stored, can I do to fix this?

    Hmm.
    I see just one solution;
    You must use a Linux Live CD or WinPE bootable disk to boot from that disk and gain access to the HARD drive.
    Then you can back up the data on external HARD disk or USB key, and then you would be able to restore the operating system using a Windows XP Vista or Win 7 disc

    Google for WinPE and how to create a CD bootable image that you can download.

  • Laptop with XP/Ubuntu Dual Boot (grub 2, not to wubi). How to safely to Windows 7 without losing the dual boot ubuntu?

    Hello

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 6400/1505 (1.73 Gz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 750 GB (7200 RPM) HARD drive) with Windows XP and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS installed in dual boot. I installed Ubuntu in a separate partition, not not using WUBI. Since support for XP runs in the month of April, I have to upgrade to Windows 7. I would like to know if I could pass safely XP to Windows 7 (I understand the parameters and programs cannot be transferred to the upgraded version of Windows and must be done manually) without disturbing my score of Ubutnu and the GRUB that starts when I turn on the computer. What are my options if this is not possible. I know one option is to completely wipe the hard drive and start over. But I just wanted to know if I could save my Ubuntu installation.

    PS. forgive me if this has been discussed already, please redirect.

    Thank you

    Joseph.

    To begin with, as you already know, there is no way to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7, it will have to do a clean install.  When you install Windows 7 it will rewrite the MBR and dislodge the grub, you need to reinstall GRUB after Windows installation and you need to add the Windows installation for the grub.

  • Pavillion dv6: try to Dual-Boot Ubuntu with Windows 10 (Windows 7 upgrade)

    I try to dual-boot Windows 10 with Ubuntu 15.04, but realize that this is not possible, because laptops HP reached default limit partition of 4 primary partitions.

    I have the following partitions:

    199 MB - system

    533.5 GB - C:\

    20.38 GB - recovery (D:\)

    103 MB - HP_TOOLS

    42 GB - no limit (I intend to make an extended partition with 3 logical partitions for home, root and swap for Ubuntu)

    My question is, which of these partitions should I back up and delete, and how to create a backup for this? I want to make a new partition extended to 3 logical partitions with host, root and exchange for Ubuntu.

    Another thing to note is I had originally from Windows 7, but I have upgraded to Windows 10and used CCleaner to remove the old files of Windows 7.

    The info below is a response that typically post on the forums Ubuntu on situations like yours:

    Since you have already four partitions, this is the maximum allowed. Remove just HP_TOOLS is not the solution - as it is too small to be of any use.

    So first, copy all files and folders inside the HP_TOOLS partition in your OS Win10 partition.

    Second, open the Win 10 disk management tool.  NOW you can delete the partition HP_TOOLS.

    Thirdly, shrink the Win10 OS partition to make room on the disk. Win10 is very skittish about its partition to the OS being messed up
    with "outside" with other tools - like GParted. Although it is OK, it is more likely to cause filesystem corruption, which will then make Win10 no longer starts.

    Fourth, you need a way, in the future, to restore Win10 in its current state - and you can do it without using the
    Recovery partition.  Download and install the free version of Macrium Reflect.  Plug an external hard drive and use MR for
    image out of the OS Win10 and its partition on this disk.  Then, use the MR option to create a USB startup key.

    Now, using this USB key, you can restore your current configuration of the Win10 of this backup.

    Fifth, you can now return to the Win10 disk management tool and remove the recovery partition. Do not format the free space, leave it as what.

    For more assistance, you should post in the Ubuntu forums: Ubuntu Forums

  • No sound in Windows 7 after installing dual boot Ubuntu (Sound Blaster Audigy)

    I recently put my Windows 7 system to dual-boot with Ubuntu 9.10.

    Now, Ubuntu will play audio through my Sound Blaster Audigy, but Windows 7 will not. I reinstalled all the drivers and installed correctly. I went through the troubleshooting Control Panel section; She didn't find any problem, but there is still no sound. When I play music, volume control shows that the audio is playing.

    I can only assume that there is a problem with the installation of Ubuntu, that seems odd, since BONES are on separate partitions on my hard drive. Like I said, Ubuntu played outside the Audigy with no problems.

    Meanwhile I use my onboard sound for Win7, but I'd love to get my audigy...

    Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.

    Nope checked all the possible power for audio setting in windows 7.  The only solution I found was disabling Audigy, plug in my onboard sound, allowing it and restart the computer.  On restart I could activate audigy, plug on it and activate the audigy player.  It was my only solution, but this is not going to work whenever I want to use ubuntu. No solution practice.
