git migration from windows ntfs to linux ext4

git migration from Windows NTFS to Linux ext4

location: linuxexchange.com - date: February 6, 2013
I have a git repo on Windows. Now I installed dual boot to linux on the same machine. In linux, I mounted the NTFS and I did cp -r /media/OS/Users/xl/git/xyz ~/git/xyz then since I've worked on linux at ~/git/xyz and also have git committed (locally). Did I just screw up my git info? If so, how to fix? Unfortunately, there's no any remote repository nor any pristine backup, because I already rysnc's back to the NTFS one from linux. (NTFS is case-insensitve but case aware, if that matters) thanks.

Migration from Windows to LInux

Hello all Linux Professionals, Well I have been working on Linux for the past 2 years at my university but we didnt have much resources where internet is concerned. I am very familiar with Linux, compilation n building programs and even scripts. Well now I have been working in my organisation for 4 months. Its a small IT Firm with around 50 employees but we may have a huge recruitment of another 100 employees within next 6 months. I need to change my server from Windows to Linux which I am working on. Now I am planning to setup a Redhat 9 on the machine with the following services. DNS (BIND) Proxy (Mostly Squid) HTTP server (mostly APACHE) Email (Dont know --- am confused but need POP3 as well as IMAP. My users should be able to access their email from the internet even from outside office. I am running an ADSL Line with 2Mb/512 bandwidth. I am running over PPPoA which I am unable to configure yet but am working on it with as I have an Alcatel USB ADSL Modem. Tr

Curious: Linux migration from Windows

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: December 25, 2006
Hi, I'm curious about finding out about people's migration from Windows to Linux. For me it began sometime during the first quarter of 2005. I was fed up with Windows and saw Knoppix a few months before and decided to switch. I bought a second hard-drive, and installed SuSE, it was great, though not without it's problems. As time went on I installed Fedora, Slackware, Linspire, Debian, Mandrake, XandrOS, and SimplyMEPIS. Now, I'm running XUbuntu--and loving it. While (in my humble opinion) Linux is somewhat over-hyped, many core capabilities of it are far superior to windows and significantly outweigh the few (very few) things microsoft got right. I haven't booted windows in a long time, except to post to this forum when I briefly had a minor Internet problem after installing XUbuntu and to play the occasional windows-only game like Splinter Cell and Bloodrayne. If I can only figure out how to use WINE to it's fullest (for game play) and learn to write convincing letter

I made a custom Linux for migration from Windows

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: May 31, 2011
Hello everybody ! I am a web developer, a web designer and a visual artist from Romania. I created a Linux distro based on Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS for everybody who wants to migrate from Windows without complications. It comes with preinstalled software for multi-media, for editing, for authoring, for tweaking, for testing and for backup. I choosed a selection of programs wich worked well for me. I know that Windows comes without preinstalled software, but it is easy to install it manually, because everybody knows what programs they want: Nero, BSPlayer, Winamp, Yahoo Messenger etc. However, i know that most people really hate Terminal. The accesibility is the keyword this days, so i want to help undecided users to make a decission. Added to right cLick "Change desktop resolution". Added to right cLick "Create document" - the recognized formats of Office (doc,xls,ppt) Added new themes, wallpapers, bootscreen etc. Added Open Terminal here. Added Runz and App runner to c

HOWTO: NoCD FreeBSD/NetBSD Installation From Windows or Linux

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 1, 2008
Main Site This guide is for anyone who wants to install FreeBSD or NetBSD without using any external media, such as a CD, Floppy, USB-Drive, or the like. It uses UNetbootin to chainload off the host OS's bootloader (via GRUB4DOS on Windows, and GRUB on Linux), and load the installer for FreeBSD/NetBSD, so that installation can continue via the standard FTP-install approach, or through predownloaded packages on a partition. Supported *BSDs to be installed: FreeBSD 7.0, FreeBSD 6.3, NetBSD 4.0 Supported OS's to be installed from: Windows, Linux Download Locations 1. Navigate here and pick the appropriate OS to install. Direct links are here: FreeBSD 7.0 FreeBSD 6.3 NetBSD 4.0 Instructions for Windows If using Windows, download the .exe version for whatever OS you want to install, and reboot when prompted. Select the UNetbootin boot option on the next reboot, and it'll launch the FreeBSD/NetBSD installer. After that, just follow the standard installation instructions. Instructions

From Windows to Linux II

location: linux.com - date: December 28, 2010
Hello, I tilted this thread "From Windows to Linux II" because my questions are very similar to the original "From Windows to Linux." I hope this is OK. I have read those replies but I still have some questions about the best way to make the change to Windows. This is my situation: I'm currently running Windows Vista Home Premium in 4 GB of RAM, an AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X 2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ 2.00 Ghz. I have 100 GB free in my C/ Drive, where Programs are installed, and only 1.36 GB left in my D (Recovery) Drive, where my documents are. The computer is a Gateway GT5220 with an nVIDIA GeForce 6150LE and a wireless card. I use this computer to surf the Web, process video files, including the pesky .m2ts ones, do a lot of word processing in OpenOffice, and organize my photos. I burn DVD's with the video files. I also have an external USB Black Armor drive, and I use iTunes for my music. I have purchased several albums on iTunes and would like to be able to listen
