Cant install GRUB fails on IBM intel xeon server with scsiraid
location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 19, 2010
Im trying to install ubuntu on an IBM server with intel xeon processor and scsi raid, the server was previously running MS Win Server 2003 (I never use that MS rubbush just crashes 20 times a day) anyway problem is when it comes to installing the GRUB bootloader, it just failes and keeps reverting back to the install menu, I tried several times to install GRUB but failed each time. Anyway I can get around this? im not experienced too much with this, so wouldnt know what could be causing it, im assuming its possible the boot record is somehow write protected? Ubuntu doesnt support intel Xeon processors? I have tried both the i386 and amd64 install ISO's of Ubuntu server without success, any help would be appreciated.
Im currently running Ubuntu server amd64 on an old amd machine and is running very stable unlike windows which used to be on the same machine
cant install centos 7 net install on HP i3b080sa laptop
location: linuxquestions.com - date: October 28, 2015
hi guys,
trying to duel boot win 10 and centos 7
i have tried both usb and dvd net install
the system starts and i get 3 penguins then a black screen and no activity
when i go to troubleshooting i see its complaining about xwindows not being able to start.
there is a text installer available
am i better off downloading a full install dvd?
or wont this matter as it may be that the graphics card is not compatible with centos 7?
if i install via text mode will it sort the display out after the install completes...
also,will the install detect my win 10 install and allow me to boot both os's?
any help appreciated

Cant install bugzilla on Centos using YUM
location: linuxquestions.com - date: May 3, 2008
Hi All
I purchased a dedicated CentOS server from GoDaddy, the repos where busted I corrected them to use the CentOS repos and I added the rpmforge repo. When I try to install a package I get this amongst other things

Is it normal to exclude pacakages for CentOS ? I enabled them all using enabled=1 and I even tried with enablerepo.
My current problem is that yum install bugzilla returns
nothing to do.
I really would like to install bugzilla using yum
Thanks

[SOLVED] Grub/ Grub2/ Lilo canīt install any of them properly!
location: linuxquestions.com - date: November 15, 2010
I usually install grub straight away after an install but this time it hasnīt worked for some reason after installing 13.1 on a new lappy.
I have tried grub, grub2 (from sbo) and lilo; nothing I install into MBR will boot my slackware installation, I have to use the boot USB stick every time.
grub-legacy would be my preferred one so iīll ask for help specifically with that. This is what iīm doing so far -

cant install xp and ubuntu on separate sata drives
location: linuxquestions.com - date: March 3, 2009
I'm having serious problems with this.
I've started over from scratch several times, and don't know how to proceed.
My latest attempt.
1) install winxp on 1st sata drive
2) install ubuntu on 2nd sata drive - with grub on hd0 (1st drive)
Then I try the grub option for winxp, and I get
Code:
Windows could not start because the below file is missing or corrupt:
C:\Winnt\System32\Ntoskrnl.exe
my google searches reveal that this is due to a missing or corrupt boot.ini file.
So then I load the windows install disk for repair ("R" option), do a "fixboot" and "fixmbr", which gets windows to boot, but overwrites grub
Then I go to ubuntu livecd and do some grub magic, per instructions from googling, and get grub back. But it still won't load windows, I get the same error as above.
So I tried using the windows XP bootloader by dd'g the grub mbr and copying to windows c drive and modifying the boot.ini. When I try this option and select
cant install rails in ubuntu 9.10 in my eee pc

December 13, 2009
i am trying to install rails in my eee pc with the last version of ubuntu and i have some package that are told installable.how is it possible?i can even install gem
[email protected]:~$ gem
The program 'gem' can be found in the following packages:
* rubygems1.8
* rubygems1.9.1
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
gem: command not found
[email protected]:/home/fenec# apt-get install rubygems1.8
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package rubygems1.8 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package rubygems1.8 has no installation candidate
Is it possible that some package are not installable due to my hardware? I have this problem only with this version of ubuntu i used to have ubuntu 8.10 and rails was working like a charm.
cant install new hard drive in kubuntu 7.04
location: linuxquestions.com - date: March 24, 2008
hi im running a amd mobile 1800+ with 726 ram and a 250 g and a 40 g hdd.
i installed kubuntu 7.04 on the 40 g disk and then i added linux mce to it because i want a media pc for my theatre i also would like lots of storage on it so i can keep all my movies and music on it and whatever.
so i added a 250 g drive as the secondary master it was previously used on a windows machine though not sure if that makes a difference but when i go into the disk manager and click on it and select new and i enter the mount point and device name and then i click ok and it changes the swat drive or the cd drive to the stuff that i entered and doesnt change the drive i want to change. any input would be great cause i really dont know what going on or what im doing.
thanks matt
please wait...
