Looking at his outputs, he doesnt quite have a separate 'root' partition. assuming what I saw is a bootable drive, he has one parition which is /boot and then another partition which is 'everything else'...
Is this an accurate assumption?

Person with the trouble here. results show the same thing.
I should add that I went retard when I added Ubuntu. I installed GRUB on /dev/sda2 which had the Windows stuff. But my Ubuntu install was on /dev/sdb6.
Jaxon Powell
first for systemd
Andrew Turner
so GRUB has to be installed at /boot (/boot/efi if your bios is UEFI). So this means sda2 is your boot partition.
This is the partition you wish to fix grub on?
John Barnes
I'm not sure what you mean by that. GRUB was installed on /dev/sda2 which is NTFS and has all my Windows stuff. It's the partition Windows boots from.

So this 30 second cooldown is really annoying me. I hate waiting to type. Im guessing you allowed ubuntu to perform the installation for you. Have you simply tried re-running the Ubuntu auto-install simply keeping your existing partitions? this way your Grub will be reinstalled for you.
If your not handy with linux installing/fixing GRUB yourself can be a pain, especially if you use UEFI boot, which most computers do now adays
Samuel Hall
how do I get my desktop to look like this?
Andrew Turner
The main issue is that I had an NTFS partition on sdb which has precious photos on it that I want to recover. I'm fairly certain that installing over it would lead to those photos being deleted.

Reposting this from the last thread one last time because I need help
Can anyone help me out with running Steam on Arch? I can't seem to run it as a normal user. Anytime I run either steam, steam-runtime, or steam-native, I just get dozens of the same permission denied errors for every action it would normally take during startup. I just installed it normally using pacman from the official repositories. I did try running it once as the root user and I had no issues.
Ryder Williams
I am not sure if you guys could help me. I am searching for info on how logging works on linux. I understand that sometimes it depends on each application.
But ultimately is there any way to learn more about log daemons and how OS handles all that?
Chase Perez
screen or tmux and why
Isaiah Hall
probably you need to create a group for steam, search what permission to do what you need, and assign your regular user to that group
Tyler Roberts
screen, better features although people disagree on the default configuration, like the blinking light
if you want bells and whistles use byobu along screen

Why did you pussy out and removed the LINUXCHIX link, OP?

To clarify. I should install the bootloader (which for Kubuntu is GRUB, right?) on /dev/sda2 right? Where I had it before?

guys, literally nobody ever reads the op pasta stop the drama and delet the whole spammy thing
thread title is enough, maybe make some "special editions" like /dpt/
my 2 cents

I'm fucking around with sed since 3 years and just learned that you can change delimiters like sed 's#linux#gnu/linux/g'

so they are not equal? but that contradicts their statement that they are equal!
Xavier Watson
Let me explain. In their sick brains, there is this "privilege" thing. "privilege" is stuff you get when you are born. When you are white, a man and not fat, you have lots of this stuff, but when you are black, a women or retarded, you don't, and because you don't, in order to be equal to white, fit males, you deserve special treatment.
Andrew Evans
Help! I can't choose between KDE Neon or Kubuntu!
Carson Jenkins
doesn't seem to work unfortunately. got the exact same issue still
Mason Bailey
Special treatment is an act of honor and should be done because you want it, not because someone if forcing you to do so.
Eli Morgan
so that's what they mean by privilege it's more retarded than I thought
Austin Morales
the only thing this shit is teaching people is >well, at least I'm not black, a women or retarded >my life matters

One more post before I take a plunge.
I ran the bootinfoscript and saw that => Grub2 (v1.99) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks at sector 1 of the same hard drive for core.img. core.img is at this location and looks in partition 97 for . => No known boot loader is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb. => Syslinux MBR (4.04 and higher) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdc.
This means I should install GRUB at sda, right? Not sdb (which gparted showed as having no partition table), right?
Samuel Harris
Hey Sup Forums, what's the best lightweight and user-friendly distro for daily use?

he said lightweight

just because they don't needlessly split every package doesn't mean it's not lightweight

I want to rice and I have the necessary knowledge to do it but I lack the aesthetic taste. How does one gain it, who do I need to sell my soul to?
How do I use grep to get only the "fn_pg283.html" from the line below? Basically I need a way to get everything after (but not including) the forward slash, and then stopping (but also including) the "L" (lowercase of course but I capitalized it so it's easier to read).
Charles Kelly
echo '' | grep -o fn_pg283.html
Christopher Davis
$ echo '' | grep -Po '(?
Alexander Reed
It needs to be universal. I have multiple lines of text like this one but with slight differences. For example:
Dominic Gutierrez
nice
Isaiah Jenkins
Actually, to make it more secure: $ echo '' | grep -Po '(?
Luis Wilson
Awesome. Both seem to work for all of my lines. Thank you. What exactly about the second suggestion is more secure?
Mason Watson
Just in case you get a line with a slash before xhtml.
Daniel Gray
Ah, I see. Thanks

Yo guys. I'm trying to cat out a bunch of files based on the contents of different file. The different file's contents is literally just the names to the files I'm trying to cat out. I was trying something like this...
cat /location/of/files/to/cat/$file
...but it doesn't work. How can I cat the contents of $file and then feed them into the end of the command where "$file" is in the above line?
Aaron Hill
>feminists are stupid and contradict themselves huh
Jeremiah Phillips
Anyone? You guys have been very helpful so far.
Jack Baker
so cat /location/of/files/to/cat/$file returns names of those files right? you could just use xargs, would make it pretty simple cat /location/of/files/to/cat/$file | xargs -n 1 cat

How do I fix the lack of margins?

I'm trying to make an easy script which executes a command only if a certain process isn't running. For example,
if [ps -e | grep firefox ] then
fi
How exactly do should I test for a no return when firefox isn't running?
