Tecra A9 - how to start external drive Ubuntu?

Hi, I am from Poland and need help with my Toshiba Tecra A9

I decided to install Ubuntu on external drive (LG HXD2U32PL). I am trying to boot the system from the disk, but it doesn, t work. I put the drive in the BIOS HARD-> CDROM...-> and USB-> Disc.
All my normal working bootable USB drive and boot without problem. This disc normal work and the boot on laptop Samsung and my deskop computer. I have upgraded the BIOS to version 2.10 and it does not help. If you have any idea, I'll be very gracious to her.

I have a small problem with usb transfer, it is discontinuous. It works as start and stop, start and stop.

Hello

The Tecra A9 BIOS supports these bootable devices:

* USB floppy drive, HARD drive, network (LAN), SD and USB memory CARD *.

USB memory means key USB I think is not possible to boot from USB HDD

Welcome them

  • How to limit external drives that research of bridge?

    I have the problem that I find myself working on bridge selected files that have been selected from my external hard drive.

    This can lead to catastrophic results, of course, when the user will overwrite the incorrect files, etc.

    I watched all the Bridge preferences, but I can't find anywhere to limit the search to all the original main hard drive.

    Of course, it is nice to have the backup on the external drive, (that I cloned with Carbon Copy Cloner)... but often I get to work on a photoshop file and realize I worked on a file that origin of the disk external and not the original HARD disk.

    It's driving me crazy!

    So... is there a way to limit external drives that will search in Bridge?

    Thank you!

    So... is there a way to limit external drives that will search in Bridge?

    Yes, in the menu search (cmd + F or menu: Edit / Find) you have a window that Let's select you the source where search, if you choose your hard drive as a source to look into it will find only files there.

    The folder Panel can also be useful for your purpose, although I personally almost never need because the option find in Bridge, it might be when having bridge pointed toward a drive or a folder up right quick search field in the Bridge window could also do the trick for you.

    Of course, it is nice to have the backup on the external drive, (I cloned with Carbon Copy Cloner)...

    I would not use Carbon Copy Cloner to the back upward, but a dedicated backup application like synchronize Pro, simply copy all the content you want to use for the external HARD drive backup and customize sync as you like it (when to back up, archive older files etc. etc.). There are also many others (some are free) backup utilities.

  • Satellite T130 - how to start HARD drive recovery?

    Hello

    Windows 7 was not working properly and I tried to reinstall. However, after the installation, it starts but it does not complete the process and maintains the pc shut down before I could use it. I can now use it just because I installed Ubuntu and I can also access all other partitions of Ubuntu, one that contains the HDD Recovery folder.

    Can I reinstall windows from this folder?

    I see that someone else already managed, using stormwater management files as the link below shows

    Hello

    You are still able to access the start menu in Windows or Ubuntu installation has been removed and the Windows boot loader?
    If so, you are not able to start the HARD drive recovery more

    Why? It is very easy: even if you are able to access the files, you can start this feature because the original Windows Start menu of the preinstalled Windows system is necessary to start the HARD drive recovery feature.
    So in this case, you need the recovery media (USB key) that you created using Toshiba recovery media creator.

    Of course, this could work without installed Windows, but there is no guarantee for this.

    But why I m telling you this information? You can find everything in your owner's manual ;)

  • Satellite A300 - how to start HARD drive recovery after own OS insatallation

    Hi guys.

    I have a question.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, which came with Windows Vista.
    Normally I have the recovery with the normally pre-installed utility partition.
    After that I formatted the system partition, I installed a clean and fresh Windows 7 copy.

    My question is this.
    Since the recovery partition does not get soiled with, is there not a way to install the disk recovery utility hard back in recovery of Windows of F8 before the boot options?

    Please don't tell me that I need to have the recovery disk.
    I already did, I just want to find a solution because it is not that hard for someone who accidentally formatted the system partition and had not created the disks, but the recovery partition. My guess is to do some modifications in the files of the Windows recovery environment that are launched when you use the option to repair my computer at startup, because normally, HARD drive recovery utility appears as one of its tools-options.

    The problem is that I don't have to where these files are, maybe (C:\boot?)
    Currently, I am trying to see if a facility upgrade of windows 7 on windows vista will keep options for hard drive recovery then maybe I will find what it takes.

    All suggestions are welcome!
    Thank you for your time.

    OK, just a hint more, I found what is happening with the recovery environment, and which must be replaced to include more tools...

  • Portege 3440: ntoskrnl.exe file needs to be replaced - how to start without external hard drive

    Hello

    My 3440 has developed a problem, I think the boot.ini file corruption that it requests to the file ntoskrnl.exe replaced at startup. The problem is that I don't have an external drive to boot from. When I press F2 it gives me a list of devices, that which no no it starts from. I don't have the external CD drive for this, and it won't have a USB floppy drive.

    It is impossible for me to solve this problem without the external port replicator or a cd player?

    Thanks in advance

    Pete

    Hello

    Unfortunately, without the access on the Windows CD you will not be able to fix it.

    The ntoskrnl.exe file is placed on the original Windows CD in the i386 folder.
    You could start at the beginning of the CD to make the repair console by pressing R
    In the repair console, you can use this command:

    Expand D:\i386\ntoskrnl.ex_C:\windows\ntoskrnl.exe
    (D is the CD drive)

    But as said above seems that you will need the CD player

    But wait if the i386 folder has been installed on your HARD drive you could expand the ntoskrnl.exe in this folder to C:\windows\

  • How to start in my external hard drive to Windows 7 on my iMac?

    Hello

    I new here and just want to start in Windows 7 with boot camp on my iMac running Mountain Lion.

    I was told this software can do, but I am confused how.

    My drive hard win7 is currently connected to my iMac via a usb adapter. How to start up in it?

    Thank you.

    There are additional manual changes must be made to the .vmx config file to allow the Virtual Machine to be suspended not and do not taken Snapshots in order to have it comply with the same conditions imposed on a partition boot Camp install Windows when it is running as a Virtual Machine.

    This was repeated several times in this forum by myself and others so you should be able to search and find details of I synopsized here.

    I had a quick glance, but you would be kind enough to post a link to this part.

    Take a look at: changing the file .vmx for your VM from VMware Fusion (1014782)

    To keep the Virtual Machine of suspension, you do not want to do when you use a physical disk, add the following option in the .vmx config file.

    suspended. Disabled = "TRUE".

    To avoid having the pictures taken using the following option syntax:

    ide0:0. DeviceType = "rawDisk.

    Note that if the physical disks hard was created as a (free) SCSI vs IDE, then ide0:0 would be scsi0:0.  Note that this option can be added automatically when adding a hard pointing to a raw disk, do not remember for sure and no were not I can test at then time, so the option may already be present but if not then add.

  • Starts the Powerbook g3 pismo of the external drive?

    Hello, all,.


    I want to start my Powerbook G3 (Pismo) running OS 9.2.2 since the restore in one disc external hard drive. (PB knows he has a drive hard internal , but the drive does not read discs in there.) The computer goes up the disc - its own restore disk - when it comes starts with Macintosh HD as a player start, but when I try to use the restore disc as commissioning, starts to drive to go up, but the door opens. Even if I hold the door closed, the computer starts low to halfway and glued in place: first, the question mark flashing, then commissioning with Macintosh HD but then freeze it.

    This happens even if I chose as the startup disk restore disk in the startup configuration panel. This means that I can't even begin to use disk utility to clean the hard drive of the computer. I did that with two other computers (reset several times), but those who had internal functioning disks. Is it possible that I can do this computer using the external drive as the boot? I read that the G3 Pismo that allows. I know I can get someone to take out the hard disk and smash, but I expect much prefer to destroy it myself. And I can understand how to remove the hard drive, but it seems to imply a boatload of maneuvers and some tools that I have, at the present time. I would not completely destroy the computer. It would be good for recyclers to be able to retrieve some parts, though they might be useful to someone.

    It is possible that I can't boot from the restore disc in the external drive, but maybe there's something that I have not yet tried. It seems crazy that the external hard drive with the restore disc appears on the desktop with a normal restart, and I can choose as boot drive but can't seem to complete commissioning. If anyone has any ideas on this subject, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Thank you.

    Are you trying to boot the PowerBook to an external optical drive that is connected to a USB port or your external drive connectivity FireWire?  If it is USB, that is the problem.  The reading of an optical drive connected by USB is one thing, but start since it is a different matter.  Unfortunately, your Pismo is not capable of this.

  • Compensation copy in the Cache of the external drive made bootable disk full - where / how to remove?

    My boot drive became full on my Mac Pro (end of 2013 Quad Core, I installed 64 GB 1866 MGz DD3 RAM), OX El Capitan with 250 GB HD running - it was completely full and buzzing constantly warnings etc - then I found that I had used 192,85 GB on my user folder - I have deleted my desktop, downloads and deleted the Recycle Bin.  Properly, I did a few Google searches on how to move the users folders and files of applications on an external drive using the command sudo Ditto.

    I created a new user account and tried to copy the files using Terminal Server (my files are time machine saved).  I get error messages in the Terminal it produces in series through files, noting that start-up disk is full and no space for copy cache (or something to that effect). So I've put an end to the terminal window.

    I deleted an another 10 GB by removing some applications on my HD that I can re - download.

    I tried the same process and got the same error messages as Terminal run the copy command and put an end to the window of the terminal again.  When I search the two accounts, clear Trash, running MacKeeper I can't find where the 10 GB of cache is stored, or how to remove them and I wonder how many GB of cache I.

    Tips on how to find / erase this interrupted copy hiding in order to free up space, and second, alternative ways to move or copy a large WAD of (192,85 GB) files on an external drive without having to complete the cache on the source drive?

    Many thanks in advance,

  • How a recovery of space on a LaCie external drive for an iMac?  This 1 TB drive says now "integral" and I need to reclaim space without loss of data.

    I have an IMac 3 - year, which was saved with a 1 to LaCie external drive, using Intego Backup Assistant.  Obviously I'm not successfully back up because I wasn't expecting this drive must be complete.  That said, how to fix the problem. ? I need to see the data that is on the disk and to eliminate duplication of work, and then I'll need to reform the backup process so that I have not fill up the drive.  I am not particularly adept at information technology, so more detail that can be provided, the better it is!

    What a pity that you have not started using Apple built-in Time Machine from the beginning. It deletes older backups as needed.

    That being said, the only way is to do it again. I'd get a new drive and copy what you absolutely need and wipe.

  • How can I initialize with a previous osx of the external drive?

    About 4 years ago I installed Snow Leopard on an external drive while I was running Snow Leopard on the main drive. I wanted to load a lot of video on this player to be able to use the version of Snow Leopard of iMovie when I updated the main drive. However, when I upgraded to the Mavericks (recently in Yosemite), he would list is no longer the disc of Snow Leopard when I pressed down option. And when I went to preferences/Startup and chose to start with Snow Leopard, it would not be completed the boot process.

    If I use disk utility and create a partition to use for initializing with Snow Leopard, space-how much should I assign this partition? The external drive is 1 t and it is full of 50%.

    Also, I have a 500 GB internal drive I removed a Mac deceased and put in an envelope. There are also Snow Leopard. After the partition is created, can I exchange the two external drives to be used on the same partition? What I want to do with the box HD's boot up with it, then install Mountain Lion.

    I want to give to anyone who helps me the credit, but I have 3 questions under one heading. Is there a way to get triple credit?

    I'm starting to get lost with all these drives, partitions and 4 versions OSX.

    I wonder what happened to your old Snow Leopard.  You always use the same computer that you used with Snow Leopard? A Mac can start only in the operating system with which it is originally came or newer.  Your profile information from computer to the bottom of your post mentions a 2012 MacBook Pro which is not a Snow Leopard machine.

    How much space depends on how you'll use it and how you configure.  I would like to make at least 30 GB so there is a little space, wiggle but if you start to install the applications then 60 + GB.

    I know most recent disk utilities are supposed to be able to resize partitions without erasing but I'll make sure you have solid backups first.

    You can assign a 'resolved' and two "helpfuls".

  • How can I know if an external drive has been used for Time Machine and what computer it came with too?

    How can I know if an external drive has been used for Time Machine and what computer it came with too?

    I have several laptops and iMacs. I spent the relocation of the year and only used the MacBook Pro.

    Now I'm trying to figure out which drive goes with which computer

    I connected just a disk seagate 1.5 t and the first thing he did was to ask if I wanted to use it as a Time Machine drive.

    (1) if it is the TM disk accompanying this computer don't would not it have just started upward automatically?

    (2) what happens if I would have said yes?

    (3) I don't even know if it's been activated for TM. Is there a way to tell? It may hold just for iMovie files and other programs associated with a computer from my past.

    All readers of backup Time Machine contains a folder named: Backups.backupdb. If you open this folder, you'll find another folder with the name of the computer that has been saved. If several computers have been saved on the same disk, you will have several folders.

  • How can I get the utility auditor of system files (SFC) in Windows XP to search for the source files on a CD in a CD/DVD EXTERNAL drive instead of the CD/DVD drive internal Windows?

    I use a Dell Dimension E310 PC running Windows XP Media Center Edition.  The CD/DVD drive has stopped recognizing CD long ago.  (He still recognizes DVD but not CD).  I use an external drive to CD/DVD of Asus.  I keep getting messages that Windows need to replace versions unrecognized some Windows file and asks me to insert my source CD into the CD/DVD drive.  I checked the MS Knowledge Base and got instructions on how to use the utility (SFC) System File Checker to replace the unrecognized Windows files.  I started the process and inserted the source of CD files (recovery CD provided by Dell with the PC when I bought it) in the drive of external CD/DVD, but the SFC would not recognize it it.  He just kept asking me to insert the CD of source files in the CD/DVD drive.  So I have to find a way to get the SFC utility to find files in the external CD/DVD drive source - or I have to take the PC to the Geek Squad, buy a new CD/DVD drive and get them to install it.  Would appreciate any help you can provide.

  • Drive mapping: How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.

    How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.  I tried to unplug and power, reboot etc.  There is no F: drive connected to the computer.

    Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / "disk management and select external reader by clicking on it and then right-click on it and select change drive letter and paths."  It should show the letter currently assigned (G I guess).  Click the button change.  To the right will be a drop of drive letters box.  Go ahead and select F and click on OK.  That should do it. If F is not available, then it is used by the system for something else.  Check disk management to see if you can find it.  If it is not, and is not available in the list, I'm afraid, you will not be able to change until find you what is using drive letter F and remove it, or change it to something else.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try to understand what is using F or why it is not available.

    Good luck!
