• UCS C220 M3 - cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 OS

  Hi all

  I'm new to Cisco servers and we bought 3 servers UCS C220 M3.

  For one of them, I would like to had installed an operating system Ubuntu (14.04). I tried hard but unsuccessfully to install the operating system on the server.

  On this server, I have only one physical hard drive, because I'm not really interested in getting the RAID on this server. Initially, I started on a USB with Ubuntu image and installation worked fine. Then, I tried to boot from the hard drive, but it was impossible to find the hard drive in the boot menu.

  You have no idea about it? I suspect that this is because the RAID of LSI sotfware controller is enabled and one thing to note is that I have not installed FlexFlash Cisco's SD card. Is - this mandatory? When I try to configure RAID 0, so I'm not able to install ubuntu (impossible to detect the drive with the Ubuntu Installer).

  Thanks for any help!

  If you set the UCS SW storage battery in AHCI mode, Setup see your local hard drive then?

  What is the hard disk that you installed? Depending on whether you install a 32-bit or 64-bit OS and size of the disk you are installing, it may require that the UEFI boot options.

  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI for Ubunto UEFI install help.

  If you have an installation ISO that you used to create the bootable installation USB, you might want to consider editing than the ISO via the virtual KVM, on the tab of the VM and begin your installer in this way.  This will require that a compatible version of Java to be active in your browser.

  If you do not have a longer boot disk 2 TB, you might want to consider to keep everything in legacy bios mode and avoid the complexity of UEFI which can sometimes appear.

  For drivers, these will actually be the C600 Intel or Intel AHCI drivers (depending on the mode you're looking for).

  See the Readme in ucs-cxxx-drivers.2.0.8b.iso\Linux\Storage\Intel\AHCI\Ubuntu\14.04\ AHCI driver said that the ahci driver is already provided with the operating system...

  I must stress that for Ubuntu, I see not all versions or versions of firmware that have been officially supported for the SR on board or AHCI controller.  Please visit http://www.cisco.com/web/techdoc/ucs/interoperability/matrix/matrix.html

  Although you are able to run in AHCI mode, it is not officially test/pick-up.

  In my view, the controller AHCI/PCH 6 port included with theM4 C240 is supported in Ubunto 14.04.

  Thank you

• Problem installing vmware in Ubuntu 11.10 tools

  I've upgraded from vmware workstation 7 to 8 on a windows 7 pro workstation. I've added to my VM - 11.10 Ubuntu guest. Now I have a problem installing vmware tools.  That's what I did:

  ((1) installed Ubuntu 11.10 CD in the drive, 2) open vmware and Tools CD added to office.  (3) connect you open terminal window.and.  Since I'm new to Linux, I'm stuck on how to set a password.  I type sudo passwd root, and I can't type anything in the window.

  Ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

  You have two questions unrealated

  (1) with respect to the OS - Ubuntu 11.10 - these shoud guest invited on ubuntuforums.org Creafe a connection there and ask in the beginner's forum.

  Tip - You don't really have need a password for root in Ubuntu.  Use you sudo to run root permisssions wherer programs are needed.  He said on top of each terminal.

  (2) you have any questions on how to install VMware Tools in a Linux (Ubuntu 11.10) Guest.  You most certainly need assistance with this.  In the toolbar of the program, you will see a tab called "Help".  It only contained other information you are looking for.

  See the sections on VMware Tools.   They are really useful!

  Tip: You do not use the OS installation disc that you used to create the virtual machine. Look closely under the VM tab at the top. There will be an option in the drop-down list that says "The Install Vmware Tools" you need to select this option.  The insatll will be mounted as if by magic in SLE directory/Media in the comments.  Copy the tarred on this cdrom in / tmp.  Then naviagate (carefully) in / tmp and unpack the file you copied.  Carefully change (look at you spelling - do what I say - not as I do in this post!) to the directoyrf that was created.  Exceute as su (i.e. root - like in the 1 trick.)  the .pl program wiil be contain breast.  Technically, this is called a "script" don't forget to put a. / before the script name or the bad dthing don't know he lives there.  He will ask youj on many issues.  Answer Yes to all these thatg you can.  Most likely, he will say he does not find the gcc compiler (gcc to learn more about the new program of thisbrfand the man.  He complains of missing headers.  Exit the script (Ctrl + c).  Run a progarlm (as root!) called apt - get.  Type the command apt - get install build-esseential.  Thatt is going to install the compiler you need!   Yes still needs to install the header ogical file well! Phew!  The best way I found to do this is to install a nifty program called synaptic. Use apt - get install synaptic.  I think that Ubuntu even comes with a somewahat more easy to program called apt - get it will tell you and have fun there no Super Powers mean if you type an incorrect order!   I digress from the subject.   So, you can use use "sudo aptitude install synaptic l.  Now issue the command uname - r.  He sleeps on the same kernel you use since I use Ubuntu 11.10 asI type while I'm about to uplgrade to the very scary Ubuntu 12.04.  You don't want to do it yourself.

  3.0.0 - 12-Generic

  Now launch Synaptic.  There will be a message the first time on the program expalining.  If you want to see it every time to understand this program if y0ou forget don't check the box saying you don't wang to see this every time.  BTW youi will be asked for your root passworfd to run the program.  Hope you rfemembered it!

  In any case in the search box copy, then paste the result above (one that ends with - generic - but anything copylthe) there will be l be a long list of items, but choose the one that has the string above and the word "headers".  Insatll who.  After all it can return to the order which took end. / pl and run it once more.  Answere questions.  It will end with the encouraging words (you can take advantage of the VMware Tools.  Then, run the command - vmware-toolbox as it says.

  F well there you have it in short.  My price for Linux and Mwar advice is reawsonable please contact me at one of my addresses, alias - [email protected] and we can talk about payment.

• New G770 does not start after installing Ubuntu

  Do not use is not Windows, I just installed Ubuntu on this new G770 wipe all the previous partition in the process.

  Now when you are powering the laptop, the power led lights up, but isn't it, no display, mechanical noises from him, nothing. Cannot access the bios.

  What is the cause and how to fix it?

  Kind regards

  I had a battery problem. Which is fixed now.

  Installation is complete on the Lenovo G770 with InsydeH2O Bios. He managed.
  Here are the steps I followed:
  The disk partition table is TPG. I created a partition fat32 in first position and set the boot flag (partition type is EFI, checked with gdisk ef00 type). Then an ext4 /, year ext4/Home and a sectoral approach.
  The installer told me that with this partition in use table format, I should normally have a separate partition for the boot loader code, also not yet would it be possible to install the boot loader for a partition. I ignored that did not create an and we went to the installation process.
  He filled out. I then installed grub-efi-amd64 and everything works perfectly on this laptop, the system now works fine.

• Failed to install Ubuntu on L650D - 10 H - ACPI / Bios problem

  Hello

  It is not possible to install Ubuntu newer than 9.10 to Toshiba laptop, L650D - 10H.

  This is where the Live CD stuck (you get not even the menu)

  http://www.casimages.com/img.php?i=100809073739544531.jpg

  I made ist with the spare DVD menu, disabled ACPI by pressing F6, but then, if you choose to install the Black Guard screen.

  Summary:

  9.04 64 bit without any problem to install, but wireless lan doesn't work, but you can fix it.
  Dist upgrade to 9.10 no problem
  installation of Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit does not work, even with 10.10

  ACPI or disable is not serious.

  I read in several forum that it is a problem of ACPI. For most notebook, toshiba has provided an update of the BIOS, then there was no problem.

  Unfortunately there is no update of the BIOS so far for the L650D - 10H.

  Any other idea?

  Thank you in advance.

• New HP desktop, Windows8, Ubuntu, UEFI and a desktop computer that is no longer start

  I have a new HP desktop computer purchased just before Christmas, 2012.  Not realizing the problems with Windows8 and UEFI, I tried to load the version 12.1, Ubuntu, and now the Office does not start.

  Here is the chronology of the events:

  1A tried to install Ubuntu linux 12.1 with dual boot NO

  2 once installed Ubuntu, the system would not start and crashes with an error message

  3. accessed in UEFI menu and security disabled for all boot devices

  4 tried to start again, but the only thing on the screen is a picture of Seattle and the system will not meet any keyboard input

  At this point you can power cycle this machine, everything you want, and it puts just a photo of Seattle.  I can't access BIOS UEFI, or anything like that and the machine will not respond to any keyboard input.

  I did some research and it seems that this new version of the UEFI running on this desktop computer will not allow the machine to run anything other than Windows8?

  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?  I don't want doesn't matter what Microsoft anything running on this PC, and want to dual-boot.  I have not the recovery disc for this desktop computer.

  I think about how to solve this problem first becomes the machine to respond to keyboard entries, enter the UEFI and re - enable security this could allow me boot Windows8 still?

  Thank you!

  I finally got the machine to respond to the keyboard.  I found the solution on a linux Web site

  1. turn off the machine by pulling the power cord

  2. remove the battery

  3. press and hold the Power Off button for 60 seconds

  4 replace the battery

  5. start and hold down the ESC key

  BTW, I will update this thing with some notes as this can help someone else.

  The machine is a brand new HP P2-1310.  It comes with Windows 8.

  Try to wipe the hard drive and install linux has been in vain due to the new implementation of UEFI.  At best, I could install linux on a new partition, but the machine does never start the linux OS.  It will start only Windows8 successfully.

  As near as I can tell, UEFI will prevent any OS other than Windows8 currently running on this computer.  See linux UEFI as a kind of security attack and simply prevents the machine to use.  The Open Source community works now this last attempt of MS and PC manufacturers to prevent consumers who buy a new PC to install anything other than Windows8.  Run a search on this issue and you can get more information on the latest status.

  My guess is that sometime in 2013 different versions of linux Open Source will receive the digital signature required to interact with UEFI and load their OS on the new PC, or they will develop a workaround solution.  My suggestion for anyone considering buying a new PC that intends to install linux, immediately after that purchase should consider carefully what is not possible.  Right now I still can't do and I'm stuck now with Windows8.  If I had to do it again, I will not buy a new PC, but rather just go online and buy something.  After this experience I discovered used PCs with fast processors and a lot of memory can be purchased for $100 or less (craigs list), and because they are pre-UEFI, they will be easily load linux.

• 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

• Installation/update of VMWare on Ubuntu on Fusion tools

  I'm using Ubuntu Linux on the merger (latest version), and he tells me that VMWare Tools are not installed. I think they need to update. How to make updates? I Googled it and tried a few commands in the terminal, but do not by far. Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Problems with the specific indications "install or upgrading VMware tools in a Linux Virtual Machine from the command line with the Tar Wizard" in the help file for VMware Fusion, is that they are common because not all Linux distributions are the same, and as such, he should be familiar with the different characteristics of each distribution to install VMware Tools on Linux...

  Species, in the old distributions of Linux, that the mount point is usually / mnt still under Ubuntu, the point is/Media editing so you would need to replace by good fully qualified path whether on your particular Linux distribution compared to what it shows in the directions.

  That said, and after reviewing at the output of the Terminal commands, it shows that not only were using the full qualified path wrong do not issue you orders correctly at first and I'm don't know why you would not just extract the installer of VMware via the GUI tar as I suggested earlier and then go forward from the command line.  In any case below the commands in the order that they should appear based on what is typical on Ubuntu.

  After that selection install VMware Tools from the Virtual Machine menu and it is mounted on the Ubuntu desktop (this normally occurs automatically in this distro) open a Terminal and deal with the following commands.

  Note: You will need to check the segment "cdrom0' of the command"tar"to this being safe, it's 'cdrom0' not 'cdrom1' and using an asterisk in the name of archive tar is correct because you don't actually need to use the full name as"VMwareTools - 7.9.6 - 173382.tar.gz.

  cd /tmp
  tar zxpf /media/cdrom0/*.tar.gz
  cd vmware-tools-distrib
  sudo ./vmware-install.pl
  

  Also, point you issue the command 'sudo./vmware-install.pl' and the actual installation process starts after you type your password then from then on, you can simply press Enter for the questions that followed, with the exception of the resolution of the screen if you want it to be something else, then the default value.

  If you have errors or problems be sure to copy and paste the contents of the Terminal Services session to the response unit.

• VMWare Tools/Ubuntu 9.04 edition - "Failed to generate the vmhgfs module."

  Because vmhgfs have not built correctly during the installation of VMWare tools, I can't access my VMWare "Shared Folders".

  The instructions in the blog worked well to solve the problems of hgfs.

  However, I'd suggest the following sequence:

  a. run vmware - uninstall - tools.pl (if you get what other messages on modules installed)

  b. create the vmware-tools-distrib directory

  c. apply the hotfix according to the directives of the blog page

  d. run vmware - install.pl

  If all else fails, follow the suggestion of the error message to delete the modules 'by hand' and then re-run the installation

• New wifi router installed. Why do connect to sites but lose the connection as I browse even though Windows said excellent signal. To deactivate/activate

  New wifi router installed. Because then I can usually connect sites OK but when getting around a site or to another, I lose connection even though Windows said signal is excellent. Toggle heals the problem temporarily. Two tablets under the same roof using wifi even have no problem. There is no consistency in when the problem arises in any session. It happens in Firefox and Thunderbird. Close and restart the program does not help.

  I tried the reset and it was not good. Then I learned that my wife had a similar problem with his ipad I did what I should have done at the beginning, I restarted the router again. Hey presto, problem solved.

  Now, I'm off to eat some humble pie. Thank you, guigs2

• I got a new computer and installed Firefox, but do not know how to transfer Firefox bookmarks on the old computer.

  This must be one of the most common problems that people encounter. We receive all new computers every so often, and we all need to keep the old bookmarks when we get a new computer and install the new browser.

  I feel that I must be among the small minority of people who do not know how to proceed. My old computer is not dead, she's just older (he uses XP). I kept around until I have all the data out. Any help in doing this would be greatly appreciated.

  I am now using Windows 7.

  There are several ways you can do this:

  You can set up Firefox Sync for syncing between computers.
  Edition-> Preferences-> Sync... OR Preferences-> Preferences-> Sync...
  https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/how-do-i-set-up-Firefox-sync
  Advantages: Easy to use, once set up, keeps several devices synced
  Cons: Harder to define, requires Internet access, keep track of "Firefox Sync Key."

  You can export/import favorites
